It has been developed sympathetically to its surroundings and has benefitted from plenty of investment during the last 10 years. Those few drab monoliths that were thrown up during the 60’s are being replaced by more attractive buildings and there are now state of the art lifts and snow making equipment. Val Thorens is well known as a lively resort, popular with everyone from student trips to families and couples. There are fewer catered chalets in Val Thorens than in neighbouring Meribel and the majority of accommodation is in hotels or self-catered apartments.
