Montgenèvre is a high altitude, charming alpine village resort with mostly north-facing slopes and doorstep skiing, offering one of the best snow records in the Southern Alps. This resort is truly one the best kept secrets in the Alpine region, promising extensive skiing and facilities which are constantly being upgraded. Over recent years substantial investments have seen considerable improvements with regard to ski lift efficiency as well as a major road works project which means that the road traffic which once passed through resort is now entirely bypassed.
Resort
The village forms part of the exclusive “Milky Way” Ski Circuit with over 400km of piste, encompassing Montgenèvre, Clavière and Césana opening up endless opportunities for skiing.
Ski level
In the Monts de la Lune ski area, beginners are well catered for with many green runs around village level and excellent possibilities for progression. The area is especially good for intermediates who will enjoy the endless variety of trails, tree-lined and red runs from the ‘Rocher de l’Aigle’ (Eagle’s Rock) enabling you to ski across to Clavière, taking the Montquitaine chair back up to the village.
Snowboarding
For snowboarders there is a snowpark and boarder cross at the top of the ‘Les Anges’ area, along with two open bowls and extensive free-riding terrain in the Milky Way area.
