Looking at the park, it is arranged into 'corridors', with black on the left (skiers' right), then red then blue.

There are two ways in. The entrance to the black and red corridors is right by the top of the drags. For the easier jumps on the side of the park, turn right at the top of the Plateau draglifts, and go a short way down the Plateau piste to the entrance.

The black corridor has some big kickers.

Freestyle jump at VT Park

There are sometimes competitions in the Val Thorens Snowpark, such as the French Championships SlopeStyle in April 2013, shown in this video.
