Les 3 Vallées
from 10/12/2022 to 28/04/2023
Orelle, a small mountain village made up of 10 undeniably charming hamlets, nestled in the heart of the Maurienne valley, is an integral part of the 3 Vallées.
The hamlets offer the calm and tranquility of mountain villages, with the essential shops for a stay with peace of mind.
Village and ski area are connected by the Orelle gondola
in just 13 minutes you are on the largest ski area in the world and 7 additional minutes will take you to the Cime Caron, mythical summit between Maurienne and Tarentaise.
Comfortable cabins, 10 seats, fully glazed for a breathtaking view: in Orelle the journey begins with boarding...
Under the benevolent gaze of the Cime Caron and the Pointe du Bouchet, Orelle offers 9 runs, 5 of which are naturally snow-covered. The superb Lory track, more than 4 km long, is free of any ski lifts!
Orelle the natural? Orelle the wild? Orelle is the discreet? It’s in any case the most secret of 3 Vallées.

Guaranteed skiing in Les 3 Vallées
Les 3 Vallées guarantee the largest number of connected slopes in Europe all season long.
From November, thanks to their natural qualities and regular artificial snowmaking (2,300 snowmakers covering more than 50% of the ski area), Les 3 Vallées can guarantee snow cover in a ski area maintained every night by 70 grooming machines.
The slopes of the 3 Valleys are located between 1,100 meters and 3,230 meters and 85% of the ski area is above 1,800 meters. The ability to produce snow, the altitude of the entire ski area and the inter-Valley links guarantee snow cover throughout the winter season from November and December!
