Snow Forecast, Weather Maps & Snow Reports for 3300 ski resorts

“Just returned to this resort for the 2nd time after visiting Italy, Austria and France the last few years - tbh I’d forgotten how good this resort is. You took to seasoned skiers who have never heard of it but people in the know have been going there for 15 years on the bounce, which says it all. Massive ski area, loads of lifts, mostly fast chairs but a few slow ones over Bonaigua but adds to the charm and lets you take it all in. Disagree with other review that says don’t bother going to Bonaigua. I had the Puella lift at the end virtually to myself all morning in lovely conditions. Fantastic red if you go left at the top. No queues at all on weekdays anywhere just a bit busier on a sunny Saturday, but nothing the lifts can’t cope with. Exceptionally friendly lift staff and people. Fab new 6 seater over other side of Beret to the top replacing the old 3 seater slow chair. Stayed in Tuc Blanc just across road from gondola. Great staff, great food. Really enjoyed. Only downside, our flights were changed from Toulouse to Barcelona and the transfer was a nightmare. So don’t do that out of choice.”

“La Plagne 11/03/2026. A good snow base being destroyed by being too warm. Mashed potato type snow by early afternoon on slopes exposed to sun and cut up / bumps on most red slopes. In the lower part of the resort below 1500 M there is an exposed ice base worn through to soil in avoidable places but this could deteriorate very rapidly with the high temperatures. Above 1700 M there is an snow coverage remains good but it is hard packed but soft due to warmth.
Nobody is going off-piste. It is broken ice crust. The resort is sadly suffering from too much spring heat. Skiable in good visibility conditions but very hard going in poor light conditions as the surface cuts up too much. Groomed snow only lasts a short while each morning.”

“I learnt here 50 years ago and we have intermittently visited to see its development over the years. Now we go every year as it really suits us and we never feel let-down. Great ski-in, ski-out, espcially in 1800. New lifts being added every year, New TransArc 2 years ago, New Vallandry 3 years ago, new Villaroger 10 person bubble this year. It could do with more capacity up to the Aiguille Rouge to reduce queues but I guess the receding glacier doesn't really justify this. Very snow sure and snow-making is comprehensive (but it is also a B Corp and very environmentally conscious). The number of tree-runs around Peisey Vallandry means white-outs are still ski-able. We often pop over to Val d'Isere/Tignes and Courchevel/Meribel and are very pleased to come back to Les Arcs. Les crowded, less glitzy, more focused on skiing. Plus you have the Intermediate dream of La Plagne available on the same lift-pass. The timber clad and distinctive buildings are unique among custom resorts and are officially part of the French Patrimoine, Charloote Perignan (designer) was a true pioneer. Overall, for the range of facilities, range of slopes, and variety of accommodation we think Les Arcs is right up there in terms of value for money amongst the major ski destinations, and we have skied all over the USA, Canada, Japan and Europe.”
