Val d'Isere
Val d'Isere is in Savoie department of the Rhone Alps.
The town itself is not especially enticing - it has become very developed, and it now has a large number of hotels, shops, chalets and restaurants, to keep the numerous visitors amused.
However there have been successful efforts to preserve the town architectural style - an attractive style of stone building - and there are some interesting traditional buildings to be seen in the town.
The conversion of Val d'Isere from small mountain village to major resort came a little later than Chamonix to the north, starting from around the early 1930's. In 1936 the road across the mountain to val d'Isere was complete - and the transformation could start in force.
Of course, the main appeal of Val d'Isere is because it offers access to one of the largest, most popular and most attractive skiing resorts in the Alps, known as the 'Espace Killy'. The region contains 300 kilometres of ski runs, accessed by 90 different ski lifts, to ensure that everyone can find a suitable challenge regardless of level of skill and experience.
Numerous other mountain related activities are also available, from mountain climbing and hiking to skating and husky sledge rides.
And if all that is too active for you, time your visit for one of the many skiing events held in Val d'Isere, and watch how the professionals do it!
