Les Arcs Ski Resorts

Few ski areas rival Les Arcs ski resort for variety of skiing and its reputation as an avant-garde, innovative and pioneering destination for snow sports. With the lift link to La Plagne (forming the massive Paradiski ski area), it offers some of the best and most extensive skiing in the world.
The ski resort is also one of the easiest to reach from central London, with a direct Eurostar train service from St Pancras taking just eight hours to reach the ski area. A seven-minute funicular ride will then deliver you to Arc 1600, direct from the train station.
Les Arcs is made up of a series of high ‘villages’, Arc 1600, 1800, 1950 and 2000 (whose names refer to altitude). All but 1950 were built in the 1960 and 70s and as a result have some dated architecture. But recent developments have given a fresh look to most of the bases, particularly the new Edenarc at Arc 1800.
