i've been to a few diferent resorts in france and the les arcs is up there with the best i've ridden, espiecally long and natural descents.

Get a guide to get the most out of it. On reflection one of the best places i've ridden.

Can't give you a top 10, as I've only been to one place, and it was so damn good I'm going back this year 😉 Went to White Room last year- just up the road from Les Arcs. Absolutely wall-to-wall fantastic- people, food, trails. For me, I can't find fault. La Thuile was the highlight, best place I've ever ridden but the whole week was ace.

So there's my top 1 😉

Allos, Haute Verdon
Bubion, Sierra Navada
Sospel/Peille, Alpes Maritime
Vosges
Cardagne, Pyranees Orientale

Been to Les Arcs but it doesnt make the top 5.
Never been to the Italian Riviera but I sure it would probably bump the Cardagne out somehow.

Oh aye- we only spent one day actually in Les Arcs and it was the least good day of the week for me, by far. Not because it was bad, by any means, it was a good day! To be fair to Les Arcs, we probably only scratched the surface.
