it is easy to get to main les arcs, it is a very good ski area. The resturant on 'belvedere' was my fave sun trap for lunch. the snow park above it is really good too and has it's own lift.
its ideal location if the vanoise express is open for 2009, i would recomment getting at least a day pass to la plagne especially for the better skiers who will get max skiing in 1 day extension pass. try to go to Champagny...
les arcs will have more than enough skiing for you all, but la plagne is def worth checking out.
peisey-vallandry info anyone???

the links are easy peasy. a couple of examples - my husband and two boys left 1800 one afternoon up the charmetogger, skied down to vallandry, went up the vallandry lift, skied back down to vallandry because they missed a turning (they're lost without me), back up the vallandry (or grizzly) lift and back down to 1800, it took them between an hour and a half and two hours if memory serves. On day one we all met in 1800 at midday after our lessons, had two drinks and then went up the transarc and got over to 1950 in time for lunch.
as for trying to please everyone, I know the feeling very well. I guarantee your friends won't be disappointed with les arcs (or la plagne)

Glad to see you're still around.
Perhaps you could reply to my e-mail of yesterday (today would be good), and refrain from posting until you've addressed the issue. :evil:

That`s basically what i thought it would be like. I`ve gone ahead and booked the chalet, as a couple of bars is fine for us, we`re normally pretty knackered after a full days skiing anyway. I don`t suppose you know how well Vallandry is linked to the main runs in les arcs do you? the piste maps make it look relativly simple, but from experience, i know these can be missleading!!

Hi Rob,
Peisey-Vallandry is really easy access to Les Arcs, just one lift to take.
You also are at the foot of the Vanoise express linked to La PLagne, so plenty of skiing (425 kms of slopes !).
As for bars and restaurants, there is plenty of choice (Mont Blanc, Jimmy's, La Vache, Flying squirrel...) and for the restaurants, there is not one I wouldn't recommend, they are all nice food and nice people, different prices and meals.
I think you'll enjoy the resort, it's a good fun and the pistes are just great and it's snow sure aswell (snowed yesterday down to 1400m !).
Let us know how it was !
