Guide 2 Val d’isère

Areas of Val d’isère

01. La Daille

The first area of Val d’Isere you approach when you arrive, La Daille (say “La Die” if you want to sound in the know, not “La Dally”) certainly isn’t the prettiest area of town, at least at first sight, but it’s really convenient with the Funival funicular railway which whisks you up to the top of Bellevarde in just a few minutes and the bubble taking you to the mid level at the Folie Douce to head on to Tignes in no time.

04. Rond Point & Beyond

Running along the bottom of the Bellevarde mountain, more or less parallel with the main street, the La Balme and Les Carats area contains both some of the most basic and some of the most luxurious accommodation in Val d'Isère and has seen quite a lot of development in recent years.
