A ski- in/ski-out resort established in 1968, Les Arcs is a perfect example of the integration of modern architecture into the natural landscape. Consisting of four interconnected, car-free, high altitude locations, Les Arcs is constantly evolving through innovation and ambition. Facing Mont Blanc at the foot of the Aiguille Rouge (10,584 ft) and featuring an Arolla pine forest, Arc 2000 has one of the longest slopes in Europe with a height differential of 6,975 ft.
