Ski area Chamrousse

With the lift pass "Chamrousse" you have access to 16 lifts with a total length of 90 km. The ski area (1,650 - 2,250 m) in "Massif de Belledonne" offers an exceptional view of the surrounding 4,000 m mountains and of the French loWi-Fids. Due to its geographical location at the western edge of the Alps, Chamrousse is considered a very snow-sure area. The Olympic area above Chamrousse 1650 is waiting for all sporty and ambitious skiers. As well as red and blue slopes, there are also blacks to be conquered.

Chamrousse 1750, on the other hand, offers a great selection of easy runs and the chance to ski through delightful deep powder snow. The two parts of the ski area are also perfectly connected to each other. The ski area of Chamrousse is generally suitable for the whole family. Especially the pistes in Roche Beranger are ideal for families with children. Due to its large snow park, Chamrousse has earned the name "Espace Freestyle". Also, a Kids Fun park can be found in Chamrousse. A further delight: Once a week in the French holidays in February the piste "Les Gaboreaux" to Chamrousse 1650 is lit up, allowing you to savour the lovely view of the lights of Grenoble whilst night-skiing.
