About
Orelle is a Maurienne valley village in the French Alps and the back door into Val Thorens and the Trois Vallées. A ten-seat gondola climbs from the village to the slopes, all of which sit above 2,000 metres, and feeds 600 kilometres of linked runs across the wider domain. The Lory run drops more than four kilometres with no intermediate lift, the quiet edge of the largest ski area on earth.
