Villarodin-Bourget has served as a mountain-farming community in the Maurienne Valley since the Middle Ages. The commune stands above the Arc River in Savoie, in the high Alpine country of Haute Maurienne and close to the Italian border. Its villages of Villarodin and Le Bourget preserve the close-knit layout of older valley settlements, while La Norma, a ski resort opened in 1971, adds a modern outdoor dimension. The nearby Vanoise National Park places the area among the French Alps’ important protected mountain landscapes. Browse additional webcams from Haute Maurienne to extend your view of the Arc valley.
