If you ask Serre Chevalier, you'll have an entire valley indicated to you : you enter Serre Chevalier at the summit of the Lautaret and Galibier passes and leave a good 20 km further down the valley. Do you have visions of a chalet, a village house, a nice meal, a carefree world, well, in short, a real resort. Our aim is to combine authenticity with quality. Serre chevalier adheres to a quality charter for accommodation, infrastructure and the environment as well as for its easy way of life or simply its conviviality. The heart-beat of Serre Chevalier's mountains comes from its 3500 inhabitants. Very French to visitors given its warm welcome and local cuisine. Very international to the French, because this is where North and South meet. Serre Chevalier is at the cross-roads of Provence and Italy.

Serre Chevalier is a doorstep of the Ecrins National Park with heights of over 4000 m (12 000' ): the Ecrins ridge and renowned peaks such as La Meije, le Pelvoux or the Monêtier dome. Sixteen villages and hamlets united under the Eagle banner, the emblem of a Serre Chevalier family. Water, Air and Earth are waiting for you under one of the clearest skies in France; people come here to convalesce and breathe in the freshest of air.

The air of the Hautes Alpes is heated by nearly 300 days of sunshine a year. Its rivers, lakes and streams offer crystal clear waters, not forgetting the mountains, cliffs and peaks open to walkers, climbers and mountain bikers alike. In summer, experience the good life: Votive fêtes in thirteen villages, organised activities, festivals, evening gatherings and various events.
