The Location Saint Sorlin d Arves lies at an altitude of 1600 metres, dominated by a glacier at 3,464 metres and at the heart of the Maurienne Valley in Savoie. An unspoilt traditional village, Saint Sorlin d Arves is one of the resorts that makes up the ski area of Les Sybelles, the fourth largest in France with over 310 km of pistes. Along with other resorts in the ski domain of Les Sybelles, Saint Sorlin d Arves has recently expanded in keeping with the local architecture and as a result has attracted some major UK tour operators making it an excellent place to invest. There are great facilities in this village and as it is not a purpose built ski resort, it has a fantastic all year round community feel. There are plenty of bars, restaurants, shops and facilities in the village as well as in the neighbouring St Jean dArves. Activities in the region span the whole year with a large amount of skiing at high altitude in winter as well as ice skating, dog sledding and snow shoe walking. The skiing area is fantastic with around 310 km of pistes and runs to suit everyone in this family orientated resort. The snow fall is good in Les Sybelles and the ski area is at a high altitude with St Sorlin itself at 1600metres. Furthermore the ski pass for the area is extremely good value. In summer it is primarily mountain biking, walking and general outdoor activities. Within an hours drive you can reach Italy and there are lots of activities such as white water rafting and quad biking within the surrounding area. The resort is very busy in the summer, with lots of activities for children. There are also the usual national holiday celebrations such as Bastille Day 14th July with dancing and street celebrations. The Tour de France also passes through the village every 2 years.
