Home description
Chalet Chamoissiere is a newly-built ground-floor apartment built in traditional materials, in a convenient location opposite the ski slopes. It is just 200m to the pistes across a footbridge, and 5 minutes walk to the shop and restaurants of the spa village of Monetier-les-Bains. A heated pool, sauna and steam room are available for relaxation at the end of the day, or for lounging by in the summer months.
It is an ideal location for a family or couple wanting easy access to the slopes, but still close to the village. It is also a lovely summer location with rafting, kayaking and mountain biking all close by. Chairlifts are open in July and August for walkers, climbers and mountain bikers.

The Provence Alpes Cote d'Azur / Hautes-Alpes region
In the Haute-Alpes area, on the edge of Provence and famous for its association with Napoleon who marched through the area on his way to Paris after his escape from Elba. It is also noted for its sunny climate, boasting 300 days of sunshine a year.
Ideal for walking and hiking in the Spring and early Summer. Kayaking and rafting is nearby on the Guisane, one of the most famous rivers in the Alps for enthusiasts. Monetier-les-Bains now has one of the best thermal spa complexes in the whole of Europe.
Serre Chevalier / Monetier-les-Bains area
Serre Chevalier is one of the largest ski areas in France, with 250km of pistes to suit all levels of skier. Stretched along a high valley, from 1200m to 1500m above sea level, the pistes are strung out along the length of the valley, with wide open and sunny bowls at the top, and skiing through the larch forest below.
For the more adventurous, there is some great off-piste skiing and boarding, snowparks for the freestylers, and nursery slopes for the beginners. There is something to suit all levels of skier
For the non-skier, it is an ideal place to spend a holiday with your skiing family, as you can while away your time in the local thermal springs, the pool and sauna, or catch the ski bus down to the walled town of Briancon, a world heritage site, built by the architect Vauban in the 17th century.
The village of Monetier-les-Bains has a traditional feel, with local food stores selling produce from the local stores.Restaurants range from creperies, pizzerias and alpine specialities, to more gourmet experiences of the Hotel Alliey, and Auberge de Choucas. Thermal waters run through gullies in the main street.
On the edge of two national parks, Queyras and Ecrins, wildlife is abundant in summer, and alpine flowers cover the slopes. Cycle along the valley to the hamlets of Le Lauzet or Le Casset and sample local cheeses and ham, or visit the alpine Botanic gardens at the top of the Col du Lauteret, with sections devoted to all the major mountain ranges of the world, and a memorial to Scott of the Antarctic who trained for his famous trip to the Antarctic there.
