February is one of the busiest periods at Val Thorens. Expect longer lift lines, especially mid-morning and after lunch. To beat the crowds, arrive at opening, ski the less popular sides of the mountain first, and consider midweek visits. Day pass prices reflect peak demand at $78.
During peak season in February, expect the vast majority of Val Thorens's 150 trails to be open. All 29 lifts should be running, and grooming crews maintain a consistent surface on marked runs. Off-piste terrain benefits from accumulated snowpack and is generally in prime condition.
