Our previous All Inclusive Club Med ski trips to Chamonix, Pragelato and Les Arcs Extreme all demonstrated the value and appeal of European skiing at Club Med. This year our destination will be at Val Thorens, voted the #1 ski resort in the world 4 out the past 5 years. Val Thorens "Sensations" is Club Med's 5-star flagship ski resort, featuring unparalleled comfort, luxury, and fine food and beverages.
With its summit at 10,597' Val Thorens is the highest ski resort in Europe, and has one of the longest ski seasons. It is situated at the head of the "Trois Vallees" (3 Valleys) – the largest ski area in the world. It has 100 percent ski-in ski-out accommodations with unbeatable skiing, perfectly groomed slopes, and powdery snow guaranteed right through the season. The ski facilities are cutting-edge, with 32 high-tech ski lifts that take you right up to the highest peaks with views over more than 1,000 mountaintops. The village atmosphere is informal and friendly for après ski and it is car-free.
As always, Club Med's All Inclusive package (all meals, drinks, lifts, lessons, ski guides, entertainment & trip insurance) provides an incredible value compared to other ski trips.
