Vars les Claux

Center station

At the foot of the majestic Eyssina face, which sets the scene for a picture-postcard setting, Vars les Claux is the resort center.

From an altitude of 1,800 m to over 2,000 m, in the heart of a larch forest that gives it its name, “Forêt Blanche”, you’ll find the village spirit here, with all the services and entertainment of a major resort nearby.

Welcome to

Vars les Claux


A lively atmosphere

Vars les Claux is the bustling heart of the ski resort: several ski departure points dot the village, which stretches along the D902 towards the Col de Vars. Perfectly integrated into its larch forest, the resort offers a whole range of activities and entertainment, as well as human-sized shopping arcades for the pleasures of shopping.
All kinds of shops are represented: restaurants, sports stores, grocery stores, and boutiques to satisfy your every whim.

Residences, chalets, hotels and apartments offer a wide range of accommodation to suit all budgets.

The different snow fronts ensure that the flow of skiers and pedestrians is evenly distributed, as are the hiking trails, with or without snowshoes, all the way to the Col de Vars. In the heart of the resort, you’ll also find the brand-new Caribou rail sled for a dose of thrills!
