What Serre Chevalier is like
Serre Chevalier is one of the largest ski areas in France, uniquely spanning four distinct base areas along the Guisane Valley: the historic UNESCO World Heritage town of Briançon, and the traditional Alpine villages of Chantemerle, Villeneuve, and Le Monêtier-les-Bains. Known for boasting 300 days of sunshine a year, the resort perfectly blends natural beauty with vast, diverse terrain and authentic French mountain culture.
