Saint Sorlin d’Arves is a picturesque village situated at an altitude of 1,600 metres in the heart of the Arves Valley. With its friendly, authentic atmosphere, this Savoyard village boasts traditional wooden chalets and breathtaking scenery. In summer, the snow gives way to green, flower-filled meadows and majestic peaks, providing the ideal backdrop to recharge your batteries and enjoy outdoor activities.
The village is also rich in cultural heritage, with its 17th-century baroque church of Saint-Saturnin and its museum of “Life in the past”, which tells the story of the region’s history and traditions. (undergoing works, reopening for winter 25-26)
Welcomed by the Saint Sorlinois who live here all year round, you’ll find a warm and friendly atmosphere in this family-friendly destination with its exceptional scenery, the centrepiece of which is the superb reflection of the Aiguilles d’Arves on our high-altitude lakes.
Much more than just shopkeepers, these are the local figures you’ll meet every year when you buy your bread, your cheese such as our Beaufort AOP, your charcuterie or hire your sports equipment.
And who could be more endearing than Sorlinette, the village’s adorable mascot, who comes up with new events every week?
For gourmets, Saint-Sorlin d’Arves is also a place where you can sample Savoyard specialities such as Beaufort, the region’s emblematic cheese, and other local delicacies. What’s more, you can visit the maturing cellars of the Vallée des Arves dairy Cooperative free of charge!
