Made up of a cluster of villages, Les Sybelles is unspoilt and uncrowded.

The Les Sybelles ski area came into existence in 2003 when La Toussuire and Le Corbier were linked with St Sorlin d'Arves.

The villages vary in style and architecture from the purpose built Le Corbier and La Toussuire to the more traditional and rustic styles of St Sorlinand St Jean d'Arves.
