Valloire is a great place for families as there is so much going on. Valloire is such a small, traditional charming resort but has a fitness centre with sauna and jacuzzi, bowling lane and cinema. It’s also possible togive paragliding a go or go for a mountain walk in snowshoes. The shops are limited to classic ski resort souvenir shops and mainly ski equipment, but there is enough for a good wander. UCPA Valloire is located very near to the Moulin Benjamin chairlift making getting on to the slopes very accessible.

All UCPA meals are buffet style and with multiple servings the norm; you won't go hungry.

Breakfast is normally yogurts, cereals, fruit juice, coffee and bread - don't be surprised to see that the coffee and tea is taken in a bowl!

It is possible to return to the centre for lunch everyday where you will find 1 or 2 hot options available. As with all meals there will be a salad bar, plenty of bread, cheese, meat and of course desert. If you prefer you can make a packed lunch at breakfast time and eat on the mountain. Either way you will save a fortune avoiding the piste side restaurants.

Dinner is a 3/4 course buffet - typically a salad bar style starter, a choice of 3 hot main courses, a cheese and cold meat platter and ice cream/dessert.

Due to the cost focussed nature of UCPA and the wide range of dietary requirements, it is impossible to accommodate everyone as standard. If you have any severe dietary requirements please contact the centre two weeks before to let them know. Generally speaking vegetarians will find plenty of options, with vegan options being a little more scarce but improving year on year.
