It’s All Over… A Great Final Day on the Mountain

While Val Thorens and Orelle carry on until 5 May that’s it for the rest of the 3 Valleys but a great final day skiing (and more Marmottes!). Have a great Summer everyone wherever you may be heading…

Great snow cover but windy today, yesterday was better. Still tonnes of snow.

The last day started slightly cloudy which was good as the snow hadn’t frozen overnight and so the groomed pistes were like velvet first thing. All resorts open although greatly reduced lift service but plenty to go at.  Fantastic snow cover and most of the pistes had plenty of snow although not necessarily open due to the reduced lift system. This doesn’t really matter if you know your way around. Travelling around the Three Valleys wasn’t recommended today due to the Foehn/Lombard wind blowing. 

Remember the lifts are open in July and August for hikers and bikers with plenty of fêtes, BBQs, fireworks, mountain biking events, The Summer Ski Jumping World Cup, Triumph Bikers weekend and a stage finish of the Tour de France in Val Thorens. See La Tania Summer Life
