Home description
This beautiful chalet de montagne offers you a spacious and well decorated apartment in the stunning valley of Serre Chevalier. Situated in a rural location, yet close enough to shops and restaurants to walk to. In the winter we are a 2 min drive to the ski slopes which you can see from your balcony. In the summer these same slopes are open to mountain bikers, climbers and hikers with a lift service to get you up there. The chalet has a lovely garden which is a great sun trap, as is the balcony, both have stunning mountain views. These views are all available from your bedrooms and the living area. The balcony is south facing so keeps the sun all day.

The Provence Alpes Cote d'Azur / Hautes-Alpes region
The beautiful valley of Serre Chevalier, which boasts approx 300 days of sun, is situated in the Hautes-Alpes. St Chaffrey is one of the villages which makes up this area. We are 5km from Briancon which is the highest town in Europe and has a beautiful old town and fort to wander around. We have 250km of piste which is open in the winter for skiing and snowboarding, as well as endless backcountry.
Serre Chevalier / St Chaffrey area
There is so much to do here in the summer. The Hautes-Alpes offers some of the best climbing in france. There are also some good Via Ferrata's in the area. Roche de Ram offers a beautiful lake to swim in or just sit by, as does Pontilas lake in Villeneuve. Mount Dauphin offers the chance to see wild marmotts and feed them! Picnicking on Col de Granon, or Lac de les Ayes. The hikes in the area are countless and the National park that is Massif de Ecrins is just on our doorstep. We are also close enough to Lac Serre Poncon, at Savine le Lac, where you can go Wakeboarding or windsurfing. There is also horse riding available for 1 hour to half a day, exploring the valley on horse back is great fun! If you're not into your horses you might like to hire a mountain bike and explore the mountain and make use of the Telepherique which runs from June to Sept. While your up the mountain why not eat at one of the lovely mountain restaurants.
How to get there
We are situated in St Chaffrey, a 2 min drive from Chantemerle. The best airport to use to get to Serre Chevalier is Turin, however you could get here via Milan, Grenoble, Lyon or Marseille. Turin is the closest, easiest and quickest at just over an hour and a half away. Easyjet, RyanAir and BA fly to this airport. I would recommend hiring a car through Easyjet too. From Turin you follow signs to Frejus, then head toward Montgenevre. St Chaffrey is the first village from Briancon.
