St Sorlin d'Arves Christmas holidays
Christmas in the Alps really is hard to beat in terms of festive cheer, and that much sought after ‘white Christmas’ that the UK seems to find difficult producing. The resort sits fairly high in terms of altitude, with runs surpassing the 2000m mark, meaning that despite Christmas being fairly early in the season, the snow should be pretty good. The really beautiful traditional architecture around the village will make you feel like you’ve stepped into a Christmas card, and will provide the finishing touch to any Christmas ski holiday.
The Tourist Office puts in a lot of effort to ensure that Christmas visitors have a really memorable holiday. Past events have included torch lit descents, firework displays and a Christmas sleigh ride with the resorts nearby donkeys standing in for Rudolph and gang. Over the years, Father Christmas and his elves have been known to make an appearance on Christmas Day, with a sleigh led procession through the village.
Grab a package with flights and transfers included for a stress free journey to your winter wonderland resort, with channel crossings if you want to drive like Santa does his sleigh, or as part of an accommodation only choice, if you’re still working out how to transport those pesky Christmas presents.
