St. Martin de Belleville ski resort
Snow Range
1300-3200m
a traditional village nestled in the heart of the 3 Valleys
St. Martin de Belleville is a quiet, inexpensive base from which to explore the Three Valleys ski area. It is a traditional Savoyard village with a pretty church, small square and buildings of wood and stone. From the village there is a fast gondola which provides a direct link up to the slopes of Meribel and Les Menuires and for the return back to the village there is a gently rolling blue run and for the more adventurous the Jerusalum red run, which is a favourite of many a Three Valley veteran. For such a small village there are a surprising number of good restaurants, many with sunny terraces for a pleasant lunch. So if you are looking to ski in the Three Valleys but looking for a picturesque village that offers good value for money then this is the place for you.

The slopes
Beginners
There are many wide, gentle slopes for improving confidence and allowing an easy descent back to the resort. Complete beginners will enjoy the Learn-to-ski programme and a beginner lift-pass, covering 8 lifts in the Val Thorens ski area.
Intermediates
Try the long, wide red pistes around Funitel, Grand Fond, Boismint or the Peclet glacier. High speed lifts now provide links to Mottaret and the rest of the Three Valleys, or explore the hidden 4th Valley of Orelle, the full Three Valleys circuit offers endless opportunities with minimum queuing, even in high season.
Advanced
Expert skiers will relish the sheer volume of challenges on offer. From the fabulous powder snow on the Glaciers of Peclet and Chavière, the world-class mogul-bashing on the long steep Cîme de Caron black run, and the infamous Couloirs of Courchevel - the Three Valleys has all this and more
Snowboarding
There is no chance of running out of places to ride here. It has terrain to suit any type of rider, be it hammering on the wide open pistes, throwing yourself down the Boardercross course or floating on air in the board park near the Funitel lift - Val Thorens always has the answer. Beginners also have plenty of easy runs leading into the centre of resort. Val Thorens is a great place for people who want to progress in the huge playground that is the Three Valleys.
