The Haute Maurienne Vanoise Tourist Office has signed up Thibault Anselmet, two-time winner of the Ski Mountaineering World Cup, for a new partnership running until 2026.

A champion at the top of his game

Thibault Anselmet, now leader of the French ski mountaineering team, has established himself as a key figure on the world circuit. His specialty, ski mountaineering, a competitive version of ski touring, encompasses several disciplines: the individual race, the sprint, the mixed race (men's-women's relay), and the vertical. Each discipline has its own ranking, but it's in the overall standings, combining all the specialities, that Thibault has particularly shone, winning the World Cup twice in a row. Two "Big Globes" rounded off by a string of titles (sprint, French Championships, European Championship medals...).

Exceptional performances that testify to his mastery of all facets of this demanding sport. He particularly excels in sprinting, a short but intense event, and in mixed racing, two disciplines that will be present at the Milan 2026 Olympic Winter Games.

At the pinnacle of his sport, Thibault approaches this season with serenity and humility: "My objective is to give the best of myself. I'll do everything to be the best, and then the results will be what they are.

A sportsman committed to his region

From the outset of his career, Thibault Anselmet has remained deeply attached to his roots. Bonneval sur Arc, his native village, is more than just a place of origin; it's a source of inspiration and strength for him. "I would like to thank the Haute Maurienne Vanoise Tourist Office for its continued support, season after season. It's natural for me to represent my village, and wearing the Bonneval sur Arc logo is also a way of giving back all that it has always given me," he confides.

Towards the Milan 2026 Olympic Games

The Haute Maurienne Vanoise Tourist Office, and through it Bonneval sur Arc and the entire territory, has been supporting Thibault Anselmet since 2018. The Tourist Office has just renewed its support for Thibault for the next two seasons. A partnership that regularly enables Bonneval sur Arc to appear on the highest step of the podiums thanks to this exceptional champion.
