St Sorlin d'Arves connects by lift and piste with Le Corbier and La Toussuire as well. This makes Le Corbier ski resort the 4th largest ski area in France!
On the Slopes
Le Corbier's snow record is superb. The village sits at 1550m with the top station at 2600m plus there are plenty of snow cannons and the slopes mostly face the right way. The main thing about any purpose-built resort is the quality of the skiing and none of these three areas disappoint.
Ski in Le Corbier and you'll find they've recently added a fast chair direct from the foot of the resort right to the top, where there's a nursery area with wonderful snow. Your lift pass covers a massive area so there's plenty of skiing to cater for all standards.
Beginners: A ski holiday in Le Corbier provides exceptional learning slopes and early intermediates will enjoy plenty of easy blues on good snow. La Toussuire is slightly more challenging, with about 50km of great skiing in an enormous bowl. The ski route back is deliberately kept easy but beginners can take the lift if they wish and there's also a skibus service.
Intermediate: Keen intermediates can enjoy enormous runs with dramatic views and an enjoyable sense of journey during their ski holiday.
Advanced: Le Corbier lets advanced skiers revel in its huge mileage: it's an ambitious, rapidly-developing ski area with lifts added every year.
Le Corbier Snowboarding
Not only can you enjoy a ski holiday in Le Corbier, but the terrain here is also great for snowboarders. There is a very laid back attitude towards snowboarders and there are two snowparks to keep you busy with massive amounts of mileage. Le Corbier snowboarding also offers good accessibility to a large number of drags in the Sybelles region for a fantastic experience.
Off the Slopes
This purpose built resort is ideal for convenience - vehicles park outside the traffic-free village which curves around the foot of the mountain so that the nursery slopes run right up to the wooden terrace.
Le Corbier is noticeably friendly. Most of the shops and cafes in the piste front gallery have been run by the same families since the resort opened and the resort boasts a warm atmosphere.
There's always a weekly event being organised, from tournaments to races and shows, all taking place in the arcade that fronts the slopes.
