Why ski Val d'Isère?

Val d'Isère and neighbouring Tignes form Espace Killy — one of the great ski areas in the world. The average altitude of 2,400m means snow reliability is exceptional, the season runs late into May, and the variety of terrain covers every level from gentle beginner blues to ferocious black mogul fields. The resort itself is charming in a way that many high-altitude resorts aren't.
