Over the years, Val d’Isère has evolved into a beautiful ski resort of international renown.

It all began in 1889, when an officer of the Alpine hunters gave the parish priest the village’s first pair of skis. Who could have imagined that two boards would one day reveal the face of Bellevarde, Val d’Isère’s mythical mountain.
