Good to know
- Chamrousse Beginner Area
The Chamrousse Beginner Area consists of three drag lifts and one chairlift, giving you access to all the beginner-level slopes in the resort. It is more than sufficient if you are just starting to learn skiing! Once on site, we will explain in detail which lifts you can use and how to access them.
- I Booked the Hiker Pack — But I Want to Ski
No problem! You can decide at the last minute (on the bus) if you want to ski. In that case, you will only need to pay the difference between the two packages (no additional fees).
- Skiing Safety ⚠️
Skiing is an amazing experience, but it does carry some risks. It can be very dangerous if you overestimate your abilities. We strongly advise you to stay within your skill level and make sure you are confident with any slope or activity you choose to do. You are responsible for your own choices and actions on the slopes.
- Hikes and “Chemin des Crêtes”
Many hikes are available in Chamrousse. The most famous one follows the “Chemin des Crêtes”, from which you can admire the Alps on two different sides. This hike is easy and will take between 3 and 5 hours depending on your pace and the breaks you take along the way. We will show you which path to follow and provide you with a map to help you find your way easily.
- Minimum Participation
To be able to confirm this trip, we need a minimum of 35 participants. You will be informed 48 hours before departure if the trip is canceled due to insufficient participation.
