Region information

Saint Jean d'Arves is a ski resort located in the North of the French Alps. It's directly connected to the first ski area in the Maurienne valley : les Sybelles (310 km of ski slopes). The resort offers panoramic view on the Arves peaks (3514 meters high). Skiing, snowshoeing, paragliding, hiking and quietness are the main assets of Saint Jean d'Arves. Who appreciate large spaces without crew will enjoy his stay. The A 43 highway and the train station in Saint Jean de Maurienne (besides the Lyon, Chambéry, Grenoble and Geneva airports) allow an easy access.

During summer time, agriculture is the main aspect : thousands of flowers, cows in the fields with their bell sound in the air. Beaufort cheese is the local speciality.



France
The most fascinating point about France is its diversity, geographically enclosed by the Atlantic Ocean to the west, the English Channel to the north and the Mediterranean to the south. It is also graced with the many grandiose western mountain chains with the highest summits.
It is here where western, central and southern Europe unite with unique geographical features: the plains, water courses, lakes and marshland, hilly regions, forests, extinct volcanoes, snowy mountain peaks, long sandy beaches, and coastlines sometimes cut by steep cliffs.
The culture and history of each region is also just as diverse.

Eating and Drinking
Savoir-vivre is a way of life in France. Nowhere else is fine cuisine appreciated as much as in France. Each region has its own speciality.
The quality of wines is legendary and they are not necessarily expensive. Just ask for the house wine when you're dining out and you will not be disappointed.
Lunch is generally served between 12 noon and 2:30 pm; dinner, the main meal in France, is served around 8 pm. Service is included in the price, but it is common to leave a tip of about 10% if you have been satisfied with your meal.

Travelling by Car
France has a well-laid out network with national and departmental roads as well as toll motorways, which may be paid by credit card.
