SJI Ski Retreats now in Val Thorens

Val Thorens

“At an altitude of 2300m, resorts don’t get much higher than this. In fact, the resort is the highest in Europe and consistently popular for late season skiing. Those that like to party should stop by the Folie Douce after 3pm for tunes, toffee vodka and ski boot dancing on tables.”
