Serre Chevalier is in fact made up of 13 villages spread along the Guisane valley, the main ones being Monętier, Villeneuve and Chantemerle.
Each village is different, some are traditional and others modern but they all share the same skiing which stretches along the valley. The skiing is excellent for intermediates and beginners and has plenty of potential for advanced. Each resort is served by a good lift system and it is easy to ski between the resorts. The bus system is efficient and it does not matter if you end up in the wrong resort at the end of the day. Serre Chevalier also boasts substantial snow making capability on the lower runs but most of the skiing is above 2000m. Ski school and children’s facilities are well regarded.
Aprčs ski is relatively quiet and is centred in the bars and restaurants but there are discos and a cinema. Probably the best food is served at the Auberge du Choucas in Monętier. Serre Chevalier is not chic but it does have a very French atmosphere and is good value.
