A perfect day in the Three Valleys

If you like deep snow, long descents, blue skies, skiing and Val Thorens, to be perfectly honest, you simply must check out this great video by Val Thorens United!

Watch as the guys head into the Val Thorens backcountry and bag some seriously steep looking lines.

If this is the kind of skiing you're hoping to do on your holiday then we strongly advise hiring a mountain guide. They will help you manage the risks, show you the best spots and teach you all you need to know for a life punctuating day out on the hill.

If you are thinking of heading off piste, always remember to check the avalanche bulletin, ski with friends and make sure you are all equipped with avalanche transceivers, shovels and probes - and know how to use them!
