In summer, you can get as much enjoyment from the mountains in a few days as you can in several weeks.
If you’re coming to explore les Arcs  over a short stay, here’s our little programme so you don’t miss anything and can enjoy the full mountain experience.

FIRST DAY

Look round an Alpine pasture

On the first day, what could be better than learning a little more about a savoir-faire that is very much part of our culture: cheese!

Head up into the Arc Alpine meadows to meet Delphin, a man who loves nature, his animals and his work. He’ll tell you about his daily routine consisting of milking, making and maturing tomme.  The programme includes cheese tasting and a look round the maturing cave.

Para-gliding

Once you’ve reached the peaks, why not consider a gentle ride back down with the Tarentaise Valley as a backdrop. You can discover or rediscover this activity which is accessible to everyone and which will guarantee you a unique experience with some big thrills.

SECOND DAY

Easy walks

It’s time for a bit more activity. Let’s get this show on the road, Guys!
For families and those new to walking, we suggest a number of walks that will help you discover the mountains. A total of more than 200km  of paths for all abilities from a 30-minute stroll to a 5-hour hike.

Bilbbery tart

After the effort comes the reward !
For those who are pastry cooks at heart, it’s time to get pastry on your hands and make a bilberry tart.

You’ll find our recipe just here https://www.lesarcs.com/blog/tarte-aux-myrtilles.html

Those with a little less patience can find good bilberry tarts in all the bakeries in les Arcs and Bourg-Saint-Maurice.

PS: The best are to be found in the pâtisserie les 3G Boulangerie in Bourg-Saint-Maurice.
