Delphine Prot, Director of ASL Arc 1950, adds:“Arc 1950 is an ideal destination for a summer holiday in the heart of the French Alps. Throughout August, we offer a packed programme of events that is completely free and open to all, featuring highlights such as cycling demonstrations, falconry displays and a host of activities that bring the village to life. The range of shops and restaurants in Arc 1950 is simply exceptional and plays a key part in our visitors’ experience. Our pedestrianised village is the perfect setting for sharing special moments and creating unforgettable memories with family or friends.”
