Looking for fresh snow, larch forests and high mountain panoramas? Renting a snowboard in Valfrejus is the perfect way to enjoy a varied playground without the hassle. A friendly resort in the Maurienne, Valfréjus (Valfréjus/Valfrejus) offers a succession of immersive runs and beautiful combes, with pleasant returns to the resort and views of the Vanoise massif.

As for the weather, the often northerly exposures keep the snow in. The best sessions are played in the morning after a fall, when the light is setting in and the snow is still light. When the wind is blowing at altitude, opt for forest areas to keep your glide fluid. In spring, the snow peels off towards the end of the morning: start early and aim for a panoramic break when the slopes soften. Don't forget the appropriate goggles, sun cream and neck brace, as the weather can turn quickly.
