The Skiers' Guide to Orelle: Expert Analysis & Reviews

Great place to visit if there is a powder day, very long sections of off piste which you can do laps on top to bottom. Easily accessible from VT and the rest of the 3 valleys

Amazing off-piste skiing with descents facing different ways so there's always powder somewhere! Well worth the small price tag for a days skiing.

Orelle is a small, very French resort which has access links to the three valleys. An amazing little resort with a big benefit of accessing Val thorens and the rest of the three valleys. Accommodation wise theres limited choice but with regular shuttles from the residence to the gondola this isnt a problem. Nightlife is very limited but for the avid skier who wants to get up and go, its the perfect compromise. Flying into Turin and hiring a car is the best option from the uk 1h35m drive. Lyon is 2h35m as a comparison.
