Serre Chevalier

Serre Chevalier is one of the best ski regions in France, and possibly the world, with over 250kms of piste covering 4 areas. Serre Chevalier itself is made up of four villages: Briançon, Chantemerle, Villeneuve and Monetier.  Serre Chevalier's snow record is excellent. Most slopes face north so it can be pretty cold but as you go higher, you are virtually guaranteed the irresistible double whammy: great snow and brilliant sunshine. Surrounded by a national park, the Serre Chevalier ski resort has spectacular mountain scenery and beautiful runs through France's biggest larch forest, giving good protection and visibility even when the snow is falling.
