A beautiful village resort which has seen quite a lot of development over the last few years - new apartment buildings in the obelisk hamlet, a new tourist office (where there is free wifi), a new “espace commercial “ housing the ski schools, lift pass sales and a crèche. A tunnel under the resort means the busy through road has now reverted back to a quiet main street as any through traffic by passes the resort completely.
The ski area in Montgenevre is a great ski area on it’s own and you can get day passes just for this area. If you like to add up the KM whilst you are skiing you may prefer to buy a Mont de La Lune pass which includes the neighbouring Italian resorts of Claviere and Cesana. This covers 100km of slopes and is the pass that most people buy. You can then buy a daily extension to the whole Milky Way pass which gives access to over 400 km of skiing including Sestriere and Sauze D’Oulx and hosted the 2006 winter Olympics (costs 19€ per day locally). The lift passes use the keycard system. Any Mont de La Lune pass of 6 days or more also gives you a free days skiing in any of the other Grand Galaxie resorts (Serre Chevalier, Puy St Vincent, Alpe D'Huez, Les Deux Alpes or Italian Milky way).
Being high, an early season week is well worth considering with prices from just £250 per person. See all the prices
