The nugget village resort

Bonneval sur Arc is a veritable nugget, a haven of peace and serenity at the foot of the Col de l'Iseran (Europe's highest road pass), on the borders of the Vanoise and Grand Paradis national parks in the Northern Alps. It's here, more than anywhere else, that you'll discover the atmosphere of high mountains, grandiose landscapes and wild, unspoilt nature.
A true testament to preserved mountain living, and classified as one of the "Most Beautiful Villages in France", Bonneval sur Arc welcomes you to its magnificent stone chalets, covered with "lauzes" (stone slabs), where tradition lives on.

Here, in an open-air cinema setting, you can let go, recharge your batteries and take part in the simple, authentic local mountain life, orchestrated by its inhabitants, with their own characters and stories.

Situated between 1,800 m and 3,000 m altitude, with spectacular secret spots and exceptional snow quality from December to April, this is a resort with a wealth of freeride possibilities.

Le hamlet of l'Ecotthe setting for the film Belle et Sébastien, is a must-see for discovering typical, traditional high-altitude housing: squat stone houses with slate roofs, small windows and doors.

L'Ecot is also the starting point for hikes to Les Evettes or Le Carro, and for mountaineering courses (Albaron, Ciamarella, Pointe Marie, Levanna). Dare to descend the Ecot canyon, with no major difficulties, in an exceptional setting.
