About Saint-Martin-de-Belleville
Saint-Martin-de-Belleville ski runs

Saint-Martin-de-Belleville is an authentic Savoyard village dating from the 17th century, part of the Trois Vallées (600 km). At 1,450 m, it has managed to preserve its soul while still offering access to the largest ski area in the world via its own lifts linked to the Les Menuires sector. Stone architecture, distinguished local gastronomy, and a less touristy atmosphere than its neighbours.

Did you know?
This authentic Savoyard village in the 3 Vallées is home to a gastronomic legend: La Bouitte (“little house” in patois), which opened in 1976 in a potato field bought by René Meilleur, a completely self-taught cook. With his son Maxime, a former French junior national team biathlete, he won 3 Michelin stars in 2015, without ever having attended cookery school.

✍️ Our verdict on Saint-Martin-de-Belleville

A resort on a human scale, Saint-Martin-de-Belleville prides itself on the quality of its welcome and its closeness rather than on impressive figures. Its 40 km of runs are a perfect fit for a 3 to 4 day stay, especially for families or skiers who do not need to constantly renew their playground. The DNA of Saint-Martin-de-Belleville is upmarket: the accommodation, the mountain restaurants and the resort services reflect a clientele that does not count the cost. With a day lift pass at 67€, the stay comes at a price, but the experience lives up to it for anyone who wants to indulge without compromise. The altitude of Saint-Martin-de-Belleville (1,450 m at the bottom, 2,400 m at the top) allows it to maintain decent snow cover in the depths of winter. January and February are the most reliable months; in December and March, it is best to check conditions before finalising a booking. The budget for a stay in Saint-Martin-de-Belleville is clearly high: 67€ for a day lift pass, plus accommodation and mountain restaurants among the most expensive in the Alps. It is the price of excellence, but you should be aware of it before you go. In short, Saint-Martin-de-Belleville is not for everyone, but for those who can afford it, it is probably one of the best skiing experiences in Europe.

🏔️ Les 3 Vallées

The largest ski area in the world, and that's not just a slogan: 600 km of runs that link up without ever needing the car, from Courchevel to Val Thorens via Méribel and Les Menuires. Originally three valleys – Saint-Bon, Allues, Belleville – joined by Orelle on the Maurienne side. This is the kingdom of high-altitude skiing: Val Thorens peaks at 2,300 m in the village, the Cime Caron tops 3,200 m, and the snow lasts from November to May. Each resort has its own distinct personality, from the unapologetic luxury of Courchevel 1850 to the family spirit of Les Menuires. Plan on several days: nobody skis around the whole area in a single day.
