Magnificent panorama on the valley, with Chevril lake in the back!

Climb to the pass and enjoy a great view of Val-d'Isere.

This old hamlet ("hameau") gives an idea of how austere life used to be for Alpine dwellers. In winter, people often shared a room with their animals, using their body heat for heating. When there was no work due to poor harvests, some residents emigrated to Alsace or Ticino to seek employment.

One of the best hotels we visited on the way to Nice. We were given an upgrade without asking (two single rooms instead of a family room) and free access to the spa (indoor pool, sauna and jacuzzi!

Very nice town. At the back of town there is a great campsite where you can buy fresh baked goods from the bakery truck every morning at 8am.

Great panorama to see

Val-d’Isère is a picturesque little high mountain village nestled in the foothills of the Vanoise massif. Long sidelined, the village experienced the development of skiing and its resort in the 1930s. Its ski area is now combined with that of Tignes under the name “Espace Killy” or “Val-d’Isère Tignes”. In its historic center, the old stones and slate roofs give the village all its authenticity. In the suburbs, the many hotels and restaurants bear witness to its economic development.

The descent from Col d'Iseran to Val-d'Isère offers very pretty views of the valley. During the descent there are many bends that offer a sublime view of the whole valley.
