Serre Chevalier (or Serre Che as it’s popularly referred to) is one of France’s oldest and biggest ski areas, although unless you’ve been here you may be forgiven for not knowing this particular piece of trivia. The first lift, built in 1941, was a cable car that went up to a hitherto largely unimportant peak called Serre Chevalier. And the rest, as they say, is history.

A perfect spot for less experienced off piste skiers with a sense of adventure.
Moderate Freeride Skiing
A wide open north face where the snow stays cold. The most forgiving of the sector’s north face lines.
Difficult Freeride Skiing
For experts only. A narrow couloir with a sometimes serious cliff jump half way down.

A fun open face with a couple of short chute options. The climb to ski ratio is not that favourable though.

Steep but short north facing couloir and face – a good introduction to steep skiing.

Spring snow perfection. Suitable for less experienced off piste skiers.

Steep, dynamic tree skiing for experts only.
Severe Freeride Skiing
Steep and exposed, Rocher Carré can be used as an exciting start to a long tree run.
Severe Freeride Skiing
A wonderful and technically accessible descent in a wild uninhabited valley outside the resort. You’ll need to arrange transport to get home.

An alternative option to the Pré du Bois lines. Steep and best when deep.

Smooth, steep east face ideal for spring snow skiing.
Difficult Freeride Skiing
Cruisy skiing and breathtaking scenery in a nature reserve that is entirely outside the resort’s boundary.
Difficult Freeride Skiing
If there’s fresh snow and no wind this line and those around it offer long powder runs with no hiking.

A glorious couloir and technically the easiest of the Prorel’s couloirs. To cap it off it transitions into some fantastic tree skiing.
