Arêches-Beaufort

Arêches, a haven of authenticity in the heart of the Savoy Alps.

Nestled on wooded slopes, Arêches invites you to discover the true spirit of the Beaufortain.

Here, time seems to slow down.

Traditional chalets, flower-filled meadows in summer and snow-covered landscapes in winter create a beautifully preserved setting where peace, simplicity and a warm, friendly atmosphere prevail.

Just a few minutes from the village of Arêches, Le Planay is the perfect place to relax, unwind and reconnect with nature.

Whatever the season, nature lovers will find plenty to enjoy: downhill and ski touring, mountain biking, hiking, paragliding and much more.

Staying in Le Planay means experiencing the mountains at their most authentic, welcoming and unspoilt — a place where visitors come not only for the beauty of the scenery, but also for the unique Savoyard way of life.

The perfect setting for creating unforgettable memories with family and friends.
