Orcieres 1850 is the perfect marriage of all that is important for a ski resort - a rare union between the sunny Southern Alps and the snow-covered Northern Alps, winter sports and activities, excellent infrastructure in resort (swimming pool, ice-rink...) and large natural spaces, a well-run resort and a warm and friendly ambiance. A little corner of French Alps for people with high expectations! And this winter, the resort celebrates its 50th anniversary. With a ski area currently reaching 2725m, Orcieres is one of the rare Southern Alps resorts with high altitude skiing and an excellent variety of different facing slopes (south, east, north, west). The best of the sun and snow over 100km of pistes.
