Southern Alps

Sun-soaked skiing with space to breathe

The Southern Alps combine high-altitude skiing with long hours of sunshine, creating a laid-back, feel-good atmosphere on and off the slopes. You’ll find a mix of wide, gentle pistes through forests and more challenging terrain, all with fewer crowds than the northern Alps.

From the cross-border charm of Montgenèvre to the expansive slopes of Briançon and Serre Chevalier, and the Riviera feel of Isola 2000 and Auron, each resort offers its own character. It’s a great choice for families, mixed groups and anyone seeking relaxed, scenic skiing.
