Val Thorens, a perfect destination for spring skiing

From March to early May, Val Thorens continues to welcome skiers

While the winter sports season winds down in some Alps resorts, Val Thorens remains a top choice destination, even as spring returns. With milder temperatures, yet ample snow still present, entertainment to enliven holiday stays, and the Eskiador store team at your service until the resort closes, there are plenty of reasons to book your holiday in Val Tho in the coming weeks!

Conditions remain ideal for skiing

For some, March marks the end of the ski season, with concerns about slushy or absent snow. If that's your concern too, Val Thorens might prove you wrong! In mid-March, almost all the slopes and recreational areas in the 3 Vallées domain are still open, and snow is still expected in Val Thorens. All sectors benefit from good snow coverage, ensuring enjoyable holidays for beginner skiers as well as enthusiasts of more technical runs, off-piste, or freestyle sessions.

Besides the skiing conditions themselves, March and April offer better chances of skiing under the sun. And with longer days, you can also enjoy longer descents on the slopes, drinks on terraces, and various outdoor activities.

Another significant advantage of Val Thorens in spring: the crowds are smaller compared to the peak months of December, January, and February. Ultimately, this is more reassuring for beginners, more enjoyable for experienced skiers, and there is less waiting at the ski lifts! This allows you to maximize your ski pass and enjoy the hundreds of kilometres of accessible slopes.

A lively resort all season long

Val Thorens is alive throughout the winter sports season, with most major events taking place in March and April. If you want to combine the joy of winter sports with a festive atmosphere, this is the ideal time! Between the European Gay Ski Week, the Festival'Tho, the 3 Vallées Enduro, and the Dutch Week, it's a true European melting pot that gathers on the ski area and in the resort.

Not to mention the closing event: the "Grande Dernière", on May 4th and 5th, 2024. With ski races and free entertainment, it's a way to end the winter sports season in style, making way for summer activities.

Weekly entertainment in the resort is also always on the agenda, and shops and service providers remain open to offer you the best possible holiday experience.
