Les Arcs sits within the Paradiski ski area in the Tarentaise Valley, linked to La Plagne via the Vanoise Express cable car — one of the largest ski areas in the Alps, with over 425 kilometres of marked runs. Bear Lodge's slope-side position means guests step directly onto the piste without transfers or shuttle buses, a genuine operational advantage for families and groups managing kit and schedules. The resort is accessible via Bourg-Saint-Maurice, which has a Eurostar terminal with direct services from London St Pancras during the ski season, making car-free travel straightforward. The resort's pedestrianised areas and ski-in/ski-out convenience reduce the logistical friction that comes with many alpine properties.

A vast, vibrant, and fully ski-in/ski-out paradise in the heart of the French Paradiski domain.
Les Arcs is a world-renowned, purpose-built ski resort consisting of four main pedestrianized villages—Arc 1600, Arc 1800, Arc 1950, and Arc 2000—each offering a distinct atmosphere. Perched high in the Tarentaise Valley, it boasts pioneering modernist architecture and unparalleled ski-in/ski-out convenience. Arc 1950 offers a charming, luxury village experience, while Arc 1800 serves as the bustling hub of après-ski, shopping, and activities. As half of the massive Paradiski area, Les Arcs connects seamlessly to neighboring La Plagne via the spectacular Vanoise Express double-decker cable car. The resort is celebrated for its immense vertical drop, high-altitude snow reliability, and remarkably diverse terrain. Skiers can transition from the high-alpine bowls of the Aiguille Rouge down through sweeping, sheltered forest runs winding toward Villaroger and Peisey-Vallandry. Whether you are a family seeking convenient access and dedicated progressive learning zones, or an expert hunting for steep couloirs and world-class off-piste routes, Les Arcs delivers an all-encompassing alpine experience with breathtaking, unobstructed views of Mont Blanc.
Les Arcs offers incredible terrain variety, ranging from high-altitude glacier skiing on the Aiguille Rouge down to sweeping, tree-lined descents in Peisey-Vallandry. Intermediates will love the wide, cruising blues above Arc 1800, while experts can tackle legendary steep off-piste routes and challenging black runs.
