In the heart of the resort<\/strong><\/p>\n

Val Thorens already has the highest zip line in Europe, but that’s up at 3000m from the top of the Orelle ski area. This is right in the heart of the resort.<\/p>\n

Head to the start at the top of the Mouti\u00e8re chair lift where you will be safely strapped into a harness, with your skis strapped to your back.<\/p>\n

You then launch on a 1800 metre long flight, covering a 200m vertical descent, flying 65 metres above the slopes.\u00a0The landing is in the centre of Val Thorens<\/a> in Place Caron.<\/p>\n
