Arc 1950 Snow Record

Due to its high altitude Arc 1950 boasts a great snow record, and also has access to snow cannons to ensure you enjoy a snow filled Ski Beat holiday. The Arc 1950 bowl is higher, more sheltered and better orientated (with more north-facing runs) than the other villages, making this one of the most reliable areas for snow in the French Alps. Arc 1950 is super-high by any Alpine standards, and on a par with nearby Tignes, so most of your time is spent between 2000m and 2832m meaning the average skiing altitude in this area is very impressive, and not too far short of the likes of Val d'Isere, Tignes and Val Thorens, often considered the three most reliable resorts for snow in France.

Best Time to Ski in Arc 1950

Arc 1950 offers excellent skiing all year round. However, individual preferences and skiing ability may influence when you want to book your ski holiday.

While January is typically considered the peak season for expert skiers, March and April are often preferred by families and beginners. During these months, you can enjoy longer days, milder temperatures, and often exceptional spring skiing conditions. This combination makes it an ideal time for families with young children or those new to skiing to learn and progress at their own pace.
