Location: where is Chalet Rayon de Soleil

Situated in an incredible position on the Rue de Soleil with uninterrupted views of 3220 metre mountain Cime de Caron. The vast 3 Valleys ski area is 100 metres from the door, with only a 2 minute (approx.) walk to the Plein Sud piste and Cascades lift. The chalet’s proximity to the vibrant centre means it is ideal for accessing the ski school and abundance of bars, shops and restaurants on offer. The bus stop and public lift leading to the town centre are only a 40 metres walk (approx.) either side of the chalet.

Superb access to ski hire - Only 50 metres (approx.) from rental shop

2300m at the top of the Three Valleys ski area, VT is the highest ski resort in Europe and part of the biggest linked ski area on the planet. While it's a place for people who, above all else, love to ski, you'll also find some of the country's best après including the legendary Folie Douce, as well as weird and wonderful activities like the 1300m Tyrolienne zip wire. Olde worlde gallic charm it isn't, but skiers will wake up to find some of the best snow in the Alps on their doorstep, and the views over the...
At the summit of the largest ski area in the world and bordering the Vanoise National Park, this is a spectacular place to ski and board. Beginners are well catered for on nursery slopes by the Rond Point des Pistes, where the magic carpets often don't require a lift pass. Kids will love the Junior Park, while the Musaraigne and Campagnols runs in the beginner's area and the new Deux Combes green are perfect to practice on. With a bit more confidence, take the Pionniers or Plein Sud chairs for some cruisy lon...
The après ski here easily rivals other top resorts in the Alps. If you haven't already had the Folie Douce experience, head just under the Plein Sud lift where the "dancefloor on top of the world" is heaving from 3 pm. Another place to party is Bar 360 at the end of the blue Moraine run, which always has live music and cheaper drinks. Back in town, Rue de Gebroulaz is a hub of lively bars where O'Connells is the local Irish pub. The Frog and Roastbeef is a long-time favourite of Brits. L'Eclipse on Galerie Caro...

Brilliant week in all, the chalet was fine. It’s on the piste and in the middle of all the night life, within five minutes of whatever you wanted in resort. Maybe a couple of the rooms were a little on the small side but we weren’t expecting too much anyway. We liked the social areas and all the food we had was good.
