Les arcs ski service

Hi,

Am flying out to Les Arcs tomorrow morning (woo). Staying in the chattomenger side of the resort and i need somewhere to get my skis edged and waxed. Can anyone recommend somewhere good to go?

Also anymore know of any must see/ski sites and runs?

Cheers

Jules

:Dhi,
There are several ski hire shops located near the Charmettoger section of Les Arc 1800,most of which are located near the bottom of the Transarc Telecabine,
Intersport ,Skiset Arc 1800 ,Sport 2000 are just some of the many you will find.
As for must see runs the obvious run is the Aiguille Rouge from the top of the cable car in Arc 2000 the run (black at the top) and then varies between black and upper red all the way down to Villaroger in Le Pre some 7km away with a vertical drop of over 2000 metres.Mind you about half way down is Onre's restaurant which is a great place to stop for lunch,and all the way down at the bottom is the restaurant Le Ferme which serves a welcome glass of Mutzig (also if you have transport or do not mind a taxi journey Le Ferme is a very good place for an evening meal and Michelle's wife is an excellent cook),the Aiguillle run can be completed by a fairly confidant intermediate skier.

Other runs worth a look are both the black and red from the Grand Col,also on the Arc 2000 side,there is also a good challenging run from the top of the Les deux Tetes down to Pre-St-esprit,but which ever runs you choose they are all good in the Les Arcs domain,with runs of all grades and for all abilities,once you have been to Les Arcs i am confidant you wil choose to go again and again.

many regards and hope you have a safe,pleasant and enjoyable trip.
