At an altitude of 1,450 metres, this village-resort exudes authenticity and elegance and enjoys an ideal location at the gateway to Les 3 Vallées, the world’s largest ski area.

At the heart of the village, discover the Saint-Martin museum, housed in a former farm, revisiting two centuries of this Savoie valley’s history, from the peak of agro-pastoral civilisation to its position as a prime winter tourism destination.
The village is equipped to welcome guests, andis today considered to be an aspirational lifestyle destination, never having lost its traditional soul.
