Location
About the surrounding area of Chalet MaraisChalet Marais is ideally located in the heart of Val d’Isère, a popular Alpine skiing resort, with excellent access to amenities and the wider area should you wish to explore.
Getting to the chalet is straightforward and simple as Val d’Isère is well-serviced by its transport links. The area is easily accessible by road, with major airports in cities such as Geneva and Lyon, both of which are around a two-and-a-half hours’ drive away. The resort is also connected to the French rail network, with regular services to Bourg-Saint-Maurice, which is the nearest train station.
While Val d’Isère is primarily a ski resort, the surrounding area has grown to accommodate a number of popular pastimes. In the village, you’ll find a charming atmosphere with a world-class range of restaurants, bars, and shops, as well as a weekly market selling local produce and handicrafts.
You’ll also be able to try your hand at a wide variety of activities beyond skiing, such as snowshoeing, cross-country skiing and ice skiing. Or, you can take a break from physical activities and book a relaxing spa experience at one of the resort’s many wellness centres.
Val d’Isère comes alive at night with its famous party scene, with a fantastic variety of bars and nightclubs parting well into the night.

The Resort
Val d’Isere is the oldest of the French ski resorts and a gleaming icon at the end of the valley where the residential town lies. Surrounded by what is arguably some of the most beautiful mountain landscape in the world, the chalet village is centred around a charming baroque church. It’s a lovely place for wandering, taking in the cosy atmosphere and spending quality time with your favourite people.
Val d’Isere is composed of three skiing sections. These are La Daille, Val d’Isere centre and Le Fornet, all of which are linked by a free shuttle service. Alongside Tignes, the resort is part of a wider ski area known as Espace Killy, and a lift pass will get you access to its entirety. Ski season in both resorts stretches as long as May.
Thanks to its high altitude, Val d’Isere is probably your most snow sure option for skiing in the French Alps. The village rests at 1850 metres and its peak on top of the La Grande Motte glacier is 3456 metres high. Sixty per cent of the resort’s pistes are set above 2200 metres, meaning that the skiing is consistently good but on rare occasions, bad weather can cause the slopes to close. It’s also important to keep in mind that Val d’Isere isn’t the best choice if you’re just finding your feet on the snow, and beginners may well find themselves challenged. On the flipside, Val d’Isere is one of the top choices for experienced skiers and snowboarders, with plenty of challenging black runs (such as the iconic Face the Bellevarde, where the 1992 Olympic men’s downhill was run).
And to go with some of the most exciting and picturesque skiing in France, down in the village you’ll find some amazing bars and restaurants. What better way to celebrate conquering that tricky black run than by indulging in some equally entertaining après-ski? On the mountain itself, you can start your evening with DJ’s and live music at La Folie Douce until the lifts close and then work your way into town.
Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesChalet Marais is a great choice for families looking to book their next ski holiday, with its central location and spacious facilities.
Inside Chalet Marais, your little ones will be able to kick back and relax in the comfort of their own rooms with unlimited high-speed internet access, allowing them to game, stream and chat to their hearts’ content.
Val d'Isère has wonderful activities and experiences for kids to get involved in at every turn.
During the day, kids can get involved with the local ski school, where qualified instructors will lead them in high-energy activities and challenges designed to improve their confidence and ability on the slopes all in the company of kids their own age.
When not on the slopes, kids can participate in other popular activities such as dog sledging, ice skating, or making friends at the resort’s kid’s club.
