Where to stay
Serre Chevalier strings across four villages. Briançon, a World Heritage town of 12,000, offers capacity and genuine town life that high-altitude resorts cannot — ten minutes from the lifts.
Worth noting: Montgenèvre also hosts events in the same valley. A well-chosen base lets you cover several venues from one place.
The resort for the rest of the winter
250 km of piste across 2,500 m of vertical, exceptional sunshine, and a larch forest that keeps the skiing pleasant even in bad weather. The Monêtier baths are fed by a natural hot spring.
Partner link
