A great opportunity to enjoy both skiing and après-ski — without needing a car!
The connection to Val Thorens is open daily from 9:00 am to 4:30 pm during the winter season.
You’re also near many Maurienne resorts: Valmeinier (20 min), Valloire (30 min), Les Karellis (30 min), Val Cenis (40 min), and more.
Outdoor amenities for the summer:
Relax in our outdoor space during the summer, where a bright sunroom awaits you. Enjoy the large table to share meals with family or friends, and savor delicious grilled dishes thanks to the barbecue available for your use. Next to the accommodation, a traditional bread oven offers you a unique and friendly culinary experience. Everything is in place for warm and tasty moments in the open air!
Summer Activities: Cycling, Hiking & Nature:
Maurienne is the world’s largest cycling area with more than 1,600 km of marked routes and legendary mountain passes (Galibier, Télégraphe, Croix-de-Fer, Iseran, Madeleine…). Orelle is an ideal base for road or mountain biking.
Hikers will love the proximity to Vanoise National Park with its trails, lakes, and wildlife. Families can enjoy via ferrata, lake swimming, adventure parks, and local festivals and markets.
In summer (July and August), the connection to Val Thorens is open only on Tuesdays, from 9:00 am to 4:30 pm. Outside the winter and summer seasons, the gondola remains closed.
Access:
Located in the Maurienne Valley, the apartment is easier to reach than those in Tarentaise, especially during busy periods. Orelle is a small, family-oriented resort with excellent winter road maintenance. Only 5 minutes from the motorway exit and 1h45 from Lyon and Geneva airports and TGV stations.
