My husband and I visited Val Cenis on a last minute snowboarding holiday last March (2024) with our 3 year old daughter. We really enjoyed our week there, and for many reasons; 1- There was a great variety of runs, which are well linked 2- There's a good mix of tree runs and higher, open runs 3- The off-piste potential is amazing (we got there the week after a huge amount of snow, so just missed getting to enjoy it!), with an easily accessible large bowl at the top of the resort 4- The accommodation we stayed in was ski in/ski out 5- the lifts were mostly decently fast (2 gondola's, mostly chairs, only a few drag lifts) 6- The park was small but offered a good variety of features, and was well maintained 7- The "crèche" that our daughter attended in the mornings was fantastic, and had a couple English speakers; she LOVED her time there! 8- It's an easy enough resort to get to; not too far into the mountains, so no tricky/dodgy roads All in all, a great family resort with a decent array of runs to suit most levels (expert to pro level may get a bit bored if there's not enough decent snow). We would visit again, for sure

Val Cenis is a great, family friendly resort. Its a good size with plenty of runs. It looks like there is good off piste terrain (with the right conditions). Apres is quiet but thats expected with a resort like this.
