Peisey Nancroix Village and Paradiski Ski Area

Paradiski Skiing

Paradiski is the name for the combined resorts of Les Arcs and La Plagne. They are linked by a revolutionary lift called the Vanoise Express. La Laiterie is situated just a couple of minutes from this lift.

Where are we

In the heart of the two famous resorts of La Plagne and Les Arcs sits the picturesque village of Peisey Nancroix where our chalets are based. Peisey Nancroix village is a part of the Peisey / Vallandry ski area which makes up one of the better parts of the Les Arcs ski area. This collection of beautiful Alpine villages overlooks the connecting La Plagne. Paradiski is now one of the largest and best ski areas in the world.

Our Village

Still a working farm village, Peisey Nancroix oozes Alpine charm with the atmosphere of real French rural life. With its small streets and quaint village amenities you couldn't ask for a more authentic location for your holiday as all new build is strictly monitored and kept to a minimum with a view to preserving the traditional local architecture.

Peisey / Vallandry

Peisey Nancroix is part of a largely undiscovered small network of villages that forms the Peisey / Vallandry area. All of the villages are accessible by lifts, foot and free bus and between them have all of the amenities to service the demands of an international resort yet preserving the beauty on which the area is built.

The Lifts

The lift system is really efficient. Peisey has one lift that takes skiers and pedestrians to the top where you will find the ski school meeting point, the first ski lift, the last run of the day and the Paradiski linking lift.

The non-skier

The non-skier will not be short of things to do in this peaceful region. There are plenty of bars, restaurants and shops as well as all kinds of activities such as sledging, dog sleigh, horse sleigh, snow shoeing, cross country skiing, paragliding, sight seeing with pedestrian lift passes and much more. The area is popular with walkers and is host to many cross-country skiing and dog sleigh events throughout the season. There are guides available to lead any kind of exploration from off piste skiing to snow-shoeing
