            Val-d'Isère, Savoie, Auvernia-Ródano-Alpes, France.

Val d'Isère es una comuna francesa situada en el departamento de Saboya, en la región Auvernia-Ródano-Alpes. 

Val-d'Isère es una famosa estación de esquí a tan solo 5 kilómetros de la frontera con Italia. Se encuentra en el extremo del parque nacional de la Vanoise, en pleno corazón de los Alpes.

La ladera de Bellavarde fue el escenario de cuatro de las cinco pruebas del descenso masculino de esquí alpino en los Juegos Olímpicos de Albertville 1992. Además, Val-d'Isère fue la sede del Campeonato Mundial de Esquí Alpino del año 2009, siendo también sede habitual de eventos de la Copa del Mundo de esquí alpino. 

Val-d'Isère se encuentra ubicada en una de las zonas esquiables más populares en Europa. Junto a su localidad vecina de Tignes forma parte del llamado Espacio Killy, llamado así por el esquiador francés Jean-Claude Killy, y se autotitula como "La zona de esquí más bonita del mundo". Aparte de la belleza del lugar, la zona es uno de los espacios de esquí más extensos del mundo.

El esquí en Val-d'Isère se remonta a los años 1930, cuando se construyó un elevador en las laderas del monte Solaise. A este elevador siguió la instalación de un teleférico.

El Glaciar de Pissaillas hace posible el esquí también en verano, aunque en los últimos tiempos se ha restringido la temporada estival debido a la reducción del glaciar como consecuencia de la subida de temperaturas producida por el cambio climático. Las pistas de esquí están equipadas con cañones de nieve y un gran número de telesillas, además del funicular que conecta la zona de La Daille con la cima del Bellavarde. La estación también cuenta con dos pistas para practicar freeride, esquí extremo por rutas realmente escarpadas.

Gran parte de los esquiadores que hacen uso de la estación proceden de las zonas orientales de Francia, así como de otros países como Italia, Suiza o Alemania, debido a la popularidad y la cercanía a la frontera francesa. La economía de la localidad depende claramente de la actividad de la estación, con un alto protagonismo del sector terciario. 

Val d'Isère is a French commune located in the Savoy department, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region.

Val-d'Isère is a famous ski resort just 5 kilometers from the Italian border. It is located at the edge of the Vanoise National Park, in the heart of the Alps.

The Bellavarde slope was the setting for four of the five men's downhill alpine skiing events at the 1992 Albertville Olympic Games. In addition, Val-d'Isère was the venue for the 2009 Alpine Ski World Championships, also hosting regular for alpine skiing World Cup events.

Val-d'Isère is located in one of the most popular ski areas in Europe. Together with its neighboring town of Tignes, it forms part of the so-called Killy Space, named after the French skier Jean-Claude Killy, and calls itself "The most beautiful ski area in the world". Apart from the beauty of the place, the area is one of the largest ski areas in the world.

Skiing in Val-d'Isère dates back to the 1930s, when a lift was built on the slopes of Mont Solaise. This lift was followed by the installation of a cable car.

The Pissaillas Glacier also makes skiing possible in summer, although in recent times the summer season has been restricted due to the shrinking of the glacier as a result of rising temperatures caused by climate change. The ski slopes are equipped with snow cannons and a large number of chair lifts, in addition to the funicular that connects the La Daille area with the top of Bellavarde. The station also has two slopes to practice freeride, extreme skiing along really steep routes.

A large part of the skiers who make use of the resort come from the eastern parts of France, as well as from other countries such as Italy, Switzerland or Germany, due to its popularity and proximity to the French border. The economy of the town clearly depends on the activity of the station, with a high role of the tertiary sector.
