We have been skiing in Serre Chevalier for 15 years and have also skied over 100 other resorts worldwide. In good snow conditions Serre Che is one of the best. Great varied piste skiing,easily accessed off-piste, some lovely 17th century villages (spoiled, to some extent, by some 1970s indiscriminate building), a quickly improving lift system and friendly locals. Not for party animals. Generally quiet apres-ski based around small bars and locally owned and run restaurants. Those looking for wild apres-ski should go elsewhere.

Went to Serre Chevalier a few years back. Really enjoyed as it offers a large number of runs that cater for the intermediate. Advanced skiers will find the lack of steep runs disappointing. However it is a great place to learn to ski. The area around Chantlemerle a great place with lots of interconnecting runs. Elsewhere on the mountain make sure that you plan to get back because often an easy out run will be very difficult to back on. However the bus along the bottom of the hill is regular. It is a really great place and I hope to return soon.
