Top picks in Valmeinier!
Perched at an altitude of 1500m, Valmeinier is famously known for its resort and ski slopes. But it's also packed with plenty of activities to discover. Our Cévéo vacation village is located at the foot of this immense ski area with 160 km of pistes. Here are our top picks for Valmeinier this winter!
Sled dogs
What about an effortless ride through snow-covered forests: that's the promise of a dogsledding experience. As a couple, with friends or family, this activity guarantees a unique moment. For 30 minutes, a group of 8 dogs accompanied by the sled driver will take you through the mountains of Valmeinier.
Moreover, this activity is all the more appealing if you're an animal lover and love Man's best friend, especially seeing the endurance, power and beauty of these dogs through this practice.

Evening snowshoeing and torches
For an unforgettable evening, the Valmeinier resort also organizes a snowshoe hike in the middle of the evening. Accompanied by guides and equipped with snowshoes, this hike is open even to beginners, so that everyone can enjoy the show.
As the sun sets, you'll then see the mountains in a rosy hue, illuminated by your torches. In the middle of this hike, an aperitif dinner around a large fire ending with grilled marshmallows is offered.
This activity can prove particularly comforting after a day on skis, ending it with stars in your eyes!

BONUS: Valmigliss
To finish off our favorites of the season in Valmeinier, we suggest the ValmiGliss' park. This leisure park is home to activities for young and old alike. It's located less than ten minutes from our Angeliers vacation village.
Valmigliss' offers original activities like tubing, which is a descent made up of turns to be made on a buoy. What's more, it's open to everyone and is recommended for thrill-seekers.
This park also offers a descent in a buoy, with a springboard at the finish, all to land on a huge inflatable mattress. This is the Big Air Bag. Here too, if you're with friends or family and you love sensations, you won't hesitate to take the plunge several times!"
Finally, if all these sensations have whetted your appetite, Valmigliss' also offers a Snack Corner, at the heart of the park.
