5 – Climb to the top of the Aiguille
To start this ranking, we suggest climbing your first mountain.
The Les Arcs resort is just a few kilometres north of the summit of the Aiguille Rouge. This 3,226 m peak is the highest point of the Les Arcs resort. Its ascent is possible thanks to a cable car.
If you would like to ski to the summit, you can set off from Arc 1800 and take the Transarc gondola. Then ski down to the Varet gondola. From there, you can take the Aiguille Rouge cable car, which will take you straight to the summit.
At the top, you will enjoy a magnificent view of the entire Alps range on one side. On the other side of the bridge, you can see the Hauts de Villaroger nature reserve.
This little expedition is doable for the youngest and the oldest. Completely safe, this ascent will leave a lasting impression. And will help the youngest realise just how magical and precious our environment is. This experience is highly recommended during your stay with the « Les Arcs chalet rental » offer.
4 – Toboggan down the slopes
Just enough adrenaline and, above all, big bursts of laughter at the end. Within the Les Arcs resort, there are several areas dedicated to tobogganing. So you can enjoy it freely without worrying about skiers or snowboarders.
Taking your children for a tobogganing afternoon will have the same effect as announcing a second Christmas in the year. Fun and good cheer guaranteed. Also for older guests, who will have no trouble bringing out their inner child for the occasion. Enough to share a moment of strong cohesion between the children and the parents. Even the grandparents, for the more adventurous among them.
Take care to wear a good helmet. Safety should not come second to fun.
To go tobogganing during your « Les Arcs chalet rental » stay, you can head to Arcs 1800. There you will find a 900 m run. Then, at Arcs 200, you will find a huge 3 km descent.

This experience lets you realise how the locals once travelled long distances in the mountains. Enough to remember it long afterwards.
For the most adventurous, you can also replace the dogs with a horse. This is then called ski-joëring. More technical, this type of ride nevertheless raises the activity’s adrenaline level. Not to be missed during your stay with Pointe de Sel’s « Les Arcs chalet rental » offer.
