Outgoing > Valloire

Valloire

Valloire has retained the charm and authenticity of days gone by with residents who are even friendly and welcoming to university ski and snowboard groups. The Apres ski offers bars and clubs which suit all tastes and budgets, while the ski area is improving all the time; the recent creation of an igloo village, night skiing, investment in "Easyparks" for those learning to ski and board and the latest introduction of 2 new black slopes conspire to create a mighty fine ski area. Outgoing has watched Valloire closely and experience tells us that it's suitability for all abilities are rarely bettered.

Skiing & Boarding

Valloire is rightly recognised internationally as an excellent ski region. With 150km of well groomed piste linked to nearby Valmeinier and 70 per cent of the domain above 2000 metres, 350 snow cannons and predominantly North facing slopes, snow conditions are first class. The ski area is made up of Le Sétaz, Le Crey and Valmeinier, offering 150km of skiing which cater for all levels of skiers.


Beginner

There is small beginner slopes situated near to the village – perfect for those tired legs! There are plenty of good wide, open slopes on which to master those turns after you’ve learnt how to, “bend le knees” There is an above average choice of runs for all beginners.The nursery slopes around the 'Thimel' mountain restaurant are also very friendly for inexperienced skiers.


Intermediate

Your luck’s in! There’s a wide variety of pistes for the intermediate skier to choose from. Try the shaded, west facing slopes on the Crey du Quart or the long red from the Le Gros Crey peak into Valmeinier 1500.


Advanced

Setaz offers several black runs and the mogul field down to Valmeinier 1500 is steep and challenging. The blacks like the long 'Cascade' will test most of you experienced skiers!


Freestyle & Snowboarding

All good: snowboarders will love the wide slopes of Valloire and Valmeinier. There is a snowpark with half pipe at the Crey du Quart and plenty of good free-riding to be done on the extensive terrain.


Apres Ski

We know that a tailored après ski is a fundamental part of your group holiday and we’ll work with you to create the ideal party programme for Valloire.The resort itself has largely maintained it’s traditional and rustic charm and is also reasonably priced and friendly.

Bespoke Apres & Events

DJ's & Band

One of the things that we do really well is throw a party in the mountains (Snowbombing & Winter Break are Outgoing events). Talk to us about what your group is after... as we have the relationships and contacts with many major acts and agencies. So whether it is a live band, DJ or club night your group are after - we have no problem helping to arrange this as either an extra element to your holiday (resort and numbers dependant) or as a promotional night in your city.


Valley Rally

The Valley Rally is no doubt a student ski institution, one of the best days of your tour and one of the funniest days on the slopes for your group. Outgoing has run countless of them over the years - so be prepared for lots of stupidity, debauchery and a range of ridiculous challenges at the checkpoints all around the mountain! Fancy dress essential...


Meal on the Mountain

One of the highlights of every group ski holiday, the ‘Meal on the Mountain’ it's one the best opportunities to get your whole group together for one HUGE party and a whole lot of ‘Fromage’... These vary from resort to resort as we take over a restaurant on the mountain or in the village for a typically French fondue, with a typically student attitude – table dance anyone?


Group Race Day

For some universities racing is a very important aspect, while for others it is more about having a laugh... Whatever your motivations Outgoing can organise this for you...
