Val Thorens Guide Ep.5: Ski Slopes. From Easy Motorways to Caron 3200 & The Black Combe

Ready to ride the highest ski domain in Europe? In Episode 5 of Transfer to Alps, hosts Liam and Chloe take a deep tactical dive into the slopes, ski lifts, and hidden lines across Val Thorens and the 600-kilometre Three Valleys network.

With ninety-nine percent of the ski area sitting above 2,000 metres, Val Thorens offers bulletproof snow reliability and cutting-edge lift engineering. We break down the latest multi-million-euro upgrades from SETAM, including the brand-new 10-person Face Nord gondola, the upgraded 150-person Cime de Caron cable car, and the world-first Caron 3200 rooftop complex with Europe's highest wine bar.

Discover where to find the best beginner nursery slopes with free covered magic carpets, why the wide Moraine blue run is the greatest carving motorway in France, and how to catch untracked morning corduroy in the quiet Boismint sector. For advanced skiers, we tackle the sheer thousand-metre vertical drop of the legendary Combe de Caron black run and explain how to ride Europe's highest zip-line at 100 km/h.
