Enjoy a relaxing holiday in Les Arcs

The great thing about Les Arcs-Bourg Saint Maurice is that it's so easy to get around without a car and without any worries, ideal for taking full advantage of the scenery and looking after your health! For a tourist destination, the majority of the carbon footprint is due to visitor transport. But in Les Arcs, from the outset, the focus has been on soft mobility!

 

For starters, the resort is superbly accessible by train from Paris, Lyon, London and even other European cities. Thanks to the funicular linking Bourg Saint Maurice station to Les Arcs in just 7 minutes, you can avoid the traffic jams and hassles of mountain roads! What's more, the funicular will give you a panoramic view the whole way! Once you're up there, it's super easy to get around between the different sites thanks to the free inter-station shuttles. And this summer, take advantage of the free funicular!

 

The various sites in Les Arcs have also been designed with pedestrians in mind, with paths structuring the urban layout of the resorts. No cars, no smell of engines, no sound of horns - you'll be able to stroll around in total peace and quiet, and enjoy a complete change of scenery. The inter-resort shuttles and ski lifts will get you from one place to another quickly and easily.

But one of the best ways to enjoy the scenery here is on foot or by bike. Stroll among the fir trees, climb to the summits and take a healthy walk - you'll be spoilt for choice. So don't hesitate to leave your car behind for the duration of your holiday. Once you've tried it, you'll love it. But don't hesitate to bring these good habits back with you from your holidays.

 

After all, at Les Arcs-Bourg Saint Maurice, two things are important to us: preserving our magnificent playground and making life easier for you so that your holiday is a complete success. That's why we're doing everything we can to offer new alternatives to the car: easier, cheaper and more enjoyable! Walk, cycle and enjoy the magnificent scenery all around you. You'll discover a more respectful way of travelling, while experiencing unforgettable moments.
