Arc 2000 is called after the altitude it is situated on. At 2000 meters above sea level, at the foot of the stunning glacier Aiguille Rouge, the resort is one of the most attractive parts of Les Arcs. The Glacier, which reaches the impressive 3226 m, is the highest point of the resort and offers both skiing and beautiful scenery. The resort invites to a snow-white paradise of open space and blinding crystal views reaching the horizon. Open air and freshness a la alpine can be found here in abundance.
Skiing in Arc 2000 is not
just a pleasure, but a challenge as well. Even the most experienced get thrilled by the famous 7 km run from Aiguille Rouge to Arc Villaroger Pre. Plenty of off-piste and breath-taking advanced runs will tempt the skiing freaks. The overall 200 km of skiable slopes are available for winter fans. 95 pistes cater for intermediates and 10 for beginners. The highest of the 62 lifts takes you up to the top of the Glacier, at 3226 m. Snowboarders will find an excellent snow park and challenging off-piste to be explored by the bravest. In brief, the slopes here are a little bit more than just an adventure!
This thrilling resort offers varied and cheerful après-ski scene. About 40 restaurants, half of them along the ski routes, will introduce you to the delights of regional cuisine and offer you warm welcome before you get back to the slopes. Refreshing drink in some of the 15 bars is a good choice before you go to a night-club and there are 2 clubs to cater for your nocturne amusement. Arc 2000 is great for tourists, superb for skiers and there is one word to fully describe it – adrenalin.
