🐕 PET POLICY

Historical pet-policy guidance.

Dogs are not allowed on ski lifts or pistes in Les 3 Vallées. Saint-Martin-de-Belleville village is very dog-friendly with cleared paths through the traditional hamlet and along the river. Several gîtes and hotels accept pets. The authentic village atmosphere makes it pleasant for dog walks.

Confirm rooms, fees and access rules with the property or resort before you travel. A pet-friendly area does not mean pets can use ski slopes or lifts.
