This very pretty, charming and peaceful village is
built on a sunny slope in an area with a
micro-climate which ensures optimum sunshine
conditions. Après-ski facilities are
impressive too - a new sports centre has a 25m
swimming pool, sauna, steam room and fitness hall and
there is an open-air ice rink too. It also has a
superb and inexpensive day nursery (minimum age 6
months) and a small, caring ski school. Not
surprisingly it holds the ‘Famille Plus
Montagne’ label for its children facilities.
Easily accessed from Grenoble (50 km) by main trunk
road.
