Ski Holidays Pralognan-la-Vanoise

On the edge of the Vanoise National Park, our rentals in Pralognan-la-Vanoise are in a village lived in all year round, at 1,410 metres, among hamlets and stone-and-wood chalets. The snow front is in the village itself, with shops and accommodation at the foot of the ski area.

Pralognan-la-Vanoise is a family-friendly village resort, the last village in the valley. Experienced skiers will find a run of about 3.2 km there, the longest in the ski area. Non-skiers also go up high, with three lifts open to pedestrians: the Mont-Bochor cable car and the Edelweiss and Genépi chairlifts.

We offer studios and apartments in the village's residences, and chalets for up to 14 people. Our agency is open every day; its team manages this accommodation all year round and welcomes you on arrival.

Advice from our Pralognan-la-Vanoise agency, updated in October 2026.

The ski area has 26 km of runs, from the village up to 2,355 metres. The Mont-Bochor cable car leaves from the village centre and goes up in about 3 minutes to the Bochor plateau, from where the ski area's panoramic runs descend.

First glides take place in the village, on the beginner area at the foot of the ski area: a fun green zone, free for children under 5. The ESF offers group or private lessons from age 3, in alpine as well as Nordic skiing.

To string your descents together, we recommend the ski area's two fast chairlifts, the Genépi and the Ancolie. And for a change of scenery, the Forfait Vanoise option adds a day in La Plagne to an alpine ski pass of 6 days or more.

Around the village, 9 waymarked trails can be explored on foot or on snowshoes. To get up high, the Mont-Bochor cable car also takes pedestrians up to the viewpoint indicator, at 2,023 metres.

From age 2, the youngest can try pony sledging. Ski-joëring offers first rides from age 3, and the avalanche escape game welcomes children from age 7. In the village, the Le Cristal sports centre has a swimming pool with a paddling pool and slide, and a fun ice rink.

For a different day, go dog sledding or horse riding, or step inside the Maison du Parc national de la Vanoise, depending on the activities on offer. Here, Beaufort AOP is produced locally, in a farming tradition that is still alive.

To stay close to the slopes, we recommend first the Hameaux de la Vanoise: up on the heights, at Les Hauts des Darbelays, some accommodation is 50 m from the slopes. The Flottes run is very close, and the Lance-Gralette drag lift reaches the start of the ski area. The village centre is about 800 metres away. The residence mainly offers studios and 2-3 room apartments, for up to 6 people.

To bring the whole group together under one roof, Chalet la Bzeille sleeps up to 14 people. Chalet la Girandulata, a recent wooden chalet in the quiet Plateau district, at the foot of the cross-country ski trails, sleeps 12. Among the residences, Annapurna and Melezes have large apartments for up to 8 people.

To do everything on foot, Melezes is right in the centre, at the foot of the slopes, and Chasseforet looks onto the main street, with shops on the ground floor. In the Barioz district, the Barioz and Ferme de Pralognan residences are a stone's throw from the swimming pool and the ice rink, near the alpine and Nordic ski runs. Annapurna, which overlooks the centre, has a swimming pool.

The nearest SNCF station is Moûtiers, 27 km away. By road, access is through the Tarentaise valley via the RD915. Keys are handed over depending on the accommodation, mostly at our agency at 118 avenue de Chasseforêt: the exact place and opening hours are shown on your voucher.
