Peisey Nancroix

Peisey Nancroix is a mountain village in Savoie, in the heart of the Tarentaise valley, on the edge of the Vanoise National Park. Made up of several traditional hamlets, this family-friendly resort retains an authentic character, with its wooden and stone chalets and well-preserved Savoyard architecture. Linked to the Paradiski ski area, one of the largest in the world, it provides easy access to the slopes of Les Arcs and La Plagne. In winter, activities centre around alpine skiing, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing, set against a backdrop of peaks rising above 3,000 metres, including the Bellecôte glacier. In summer, the village serves as a popular starting point for hiking, with direct access to trails within the Vanoise National Park, where visitors may spot alpine wildlife such as ibex and marmots. Its close ties to nature, quieter atmosphere compared with more built-up resorts, and rural heritage make it a fitting destination for mountain enthusiasts seeking an unspoilt setting, whether for winter sports or outdoor pursuits during the summer season.
