Bourg-Saint-Maurice

Bourg-Saint-Maurice has served as a market centre in the Tarentaise Valley since the Middle Ages. Set on the Isère River in the French Alps, it is a working mountain town surrounded by routes leading toward some of Savoie’s major high-altitude resorts. The railway from Albertville ends here, while the funicular climbs directly to Arc 1600, linking the town with the Les Arcs ski area. Its parish church, dedicated to Saint Maurice, reflects the long-standing religious identity of the valley. In summer, the Isère is also known for white-water sports.
