  • Snow-sure, traditional resort
  • Great choice for schools
  • Ski in France and Italy

Situated high above Briançon the French/Italian border, Montgenèvre is one of France’s oldest ski resorts with a traditional yet convenient village centre.

The large ski area is snow-sure, sunny and uncrowded, and ideal for beginners and intermediates alike. A beginners area at village height provides a safe environment to learn, whilst the open bowls above the tree-line are a great place to progress, master turns and a sense of adventure.

Groups can choose from a range of lengthy blues and challenging reds, whilst with tree-line skiing, moguls and snowy bowls there’s plenty of scope for fun, whilst confident skiers can ski over the border to neighbouring Clavière.

Off the slopes you can enjoy ice-skating, Karaoke, disco night or even a skidoo ride up the mountain for hot chocolate or crèpes.
