Arc 2000
2,145 mSector altitude
Arc 2000 is one of the four sites of the ski resort of Les Arcs and more broadly of the Paradiski ski area. Arc 2000 is located on the north face of the massif de la Vanoise in Tarentaise in the east of the French département of Savoie, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region.
A sector of Les Arcs
The Les Arcs resort page →Arc 2000 is one of the ski villages of Les Arcs, and shares its ski area (200 km of pistes). The area, the lift passes, the piste map, the off-piste routes and the SkiRadar ratings are described once, on the Les Arcs page — this page keeps what belongs to Arc 2000: its own altitude, its webcams, where to stay in the village, how to get there and its ski school.
