Older ones can visit the newly built centre des
Glières (near les Balcons residence) which has
an ice rink, swimming pool and whirlpool, and is
great value for money.
Off the piste, enjoy a visit to the fromagerie or the
12 chapels culture trail. The weekly welcome drinks,
street animation and torchlight descents are not to
be missed. The après ski is quiet but the many
restaurants and bars, 2 cinemas and 2 discos, should
keep everyone happy. A good variety of shops and
supermarkets ensure that those self-catering will
find all they require. Val Cenis is only half an
hour's drive from Modane and the motorway exit.
