About Val Thorens Altiport
Perched at 2,300 meters of altitude, Val Thorens is the highest ski resort in Europe, and while it doesn’t feature a full altiport like Courchevel, it is fully accessible by helicopter thanks to a dedicated landing area near the resort. This private helipad allows guests to land just minutes from the main accommodations and ski lifts, bypassing the long and winding access roads that are often congested in winter.
The heliport is perfectly suited for VIP arrivals, offering a discreet and efficient transfer solution for those seeking to make the most of their time in the mountains. Given its elevation and alpine setting, helicopter transfers are one of the safest and fastest ways to reach Val Thorens, especially when road conditions are snowy or icy.
