About Val Thorens

At 2,300 metres above sea level, Val Thorens holds the title of the highest ski resort in Europe. It is the crown jewel of the Three Valleys ski domain, a vast interconnected playground offering 600km of pistes. The resort was purpose-built in the 1970s and has since evolved into a world-class destination with modern lifts, stylish accommodation, and a famously lively après-ski scene.

For families, beginners, and expert skiers alike, Val Thorens provides variety and snow reliability throughout the season – often from late November to early May. Its compact layout means that most hotels and chalets are ski-in, ski-out, with everything within walking distance.

If you’re wondering how far Val Thorens is from Geneva Airport, the answer is around 200km – roughly 3 hours by car depending on traffic and weather. That makes the choice of a reliable Val Thorens transfer essential, especially in peak winter months when the roads can be busy and conditions challenging.
