Serre Chevalier Reviews

Second time we have visited this resort. Ideal for families with mixed ability skiers as there is a choice of runs at top of almost every lift and down to the villages at the end. Despite being the Paris and UK half term period, lift queues were rare except at base in Villeneuve and at end of day with people skiing home. We had many empty pistes - go to monetier , briancon and the middle level tree lined pistes and no one on pomas. The mountain restaurants are great and have lots of deck chairs. The only disappointing one was at base of monetier. Top tip you can pre book your lift passes, and get a family one if appropriate. Local tourist info website has really useful map showing where everything is. If staying near aravet square you can leave skis etc with ski hire shop opposite lifts. Also often quicker to go up to micky poma and ski to chair lifts than queue for aravet gondola.

This resort was wonderful. The resort staff were all very friendly. The pistes were huge, in length and width enabling reds to be easily negotiated by early intermediates with choices of a wide snow bowl or through the trees. A wonderful run to Briancon, the views were spectacular. Ensure you visit the fortress, it's worth the climb. There’s also a good selection of mountain restaurants. Highly recommended

A little Brit visited gem, for the wannabe seasonaire right through to the party brigade. Great backcountry runs for every one & fun for all on piste. A smaller French resort with a heart & terrain for all
