Summary
Paradiski is the second major domain in the Tarentaise, connecting Les Arcs/Peisey-Vallandry with La Plagne via the Vanoise Express, a two-storey cable car that crosses the Ponturin valley. With 425 km of pistes between 1,200m and 3,250m (Aiguille Rouge and Bellecôte glacier), it offers an ideal balance between advanced terrain (Les Arcs) and family skiing (La Plagne).
The domain stands out for its excellent rail access: direct train to Bourg-Saint-Maurice with a funicular to Arc 1600.

Scibasku tip
Paradiski is Scibasku’s recommendation as a alternative to Les 3 Vallées for families and skiers seeking a major domain with better value. Slightly cheaper lift pass, more affordable accommodation (Montchavin, Montalbert), same level of infrastructure. L’Aiguille Rouge is essential. Minimum 5-7 nights.
