Alpe du Grand-Serre Previsioni Neve

The Alpe du Grand-Serre is little known by British skiers but for beginners up to good intermediate level skiers it is superb. There is a good variety of runs although there are no blacks to challenge the more advanced skier. However, lift passes are reasonably priced and there are often no queues at all. It is an excellent alternative to Bulgaria and Romania. It can get busy at French half-term weeks but then so do all the ski resorts in the French Alps. The buildings in the resort are all low level and the place is on a human scale with no high rise blocks typical of many French ski resorts. It could even be described as " pretty". We were there today (14/01/11) and there was practically nobody else on the piste. Our business, (Alpine Ventures), is based nearby and we often take clients there to get their ski legs having not skied for a year. A couple of days here and they are ready to move on to some of the bigger resorts in the area.
