Provides good skiing for family and cheaper compared to other resorts in the alps. It has great tree terrain skiing at its lower altitude but of course this comes with the downside of less reliable snow.

Ideal place for a family or mixed ability group downside is a ten min bus ride from most of the accommodation down to the centre where the ski schools are although its a free service. For skiers you can join the slopes at the top end of town so no need for the bus. There is aprés but it is much more of a family feel. Plenty of airports within 90mins transfer both in Italy Milan and Turin. Good facilities for self catering and pizza a nice Spa down the bottom of town and if you have a motor-home there is a site right there.

A great varied resort. Something for everyone. Plenty of off piste opportunities, including in the trees. Fantastic slopes for beginners in the Gondwana sector. Nice resort thats got all you need but not too big or hectic. Friendly, good altitude and snow is pretty reliable. Easy access to other resorts for the day, such as Serre Chevalier.

A real hidden gem, Frances oldest ski resort and yet its never been commercially ruined. Perfect for families and mixed ability groups. Some of the best free ride in the European alps. Highly recommend

Montgenevre is a small yet fun resort with plenty of off-piste options aswell as lots of family friendly green and blue runs. The terrain isnt super steep compared to other french resorts yet its a beautiful domain and does still offer several very nice technical black runs, tree runs and it is usually pretty snow sure. Its connected to the Milky Way ski terrain which is great as you can cross over into Italy into other resorts and come back all in one day. In addition to this the village has kept much of its french charm with a church, wooden cottages and freindly locals.

Montgenevre is situated right on the border with Italy in the Hautes-Alpes, and at a village height of 1,860m the snow conditions are pretty much guaranteed, which given recent winters in the Alps is becoming a major consideration. Its about an hour and a half drive from Turin, the drive is straightforward, and you can hire a car for about £100 for the week. Whilst that's literally to park it up at your accommodation and then drive back a week later it is considerably cheaper than a transfer which in winter 2024 was coming in at about £500! In terms of the skiing, this came as a really pleasant surprise. The village sits in the high valley at 1,860m with skiing on both sides of the village. There are plenty of blue and red runs to keep you entertained and whilst black runs are more limited, this is made up for by a surprisingly varied and large area of off-piste skiing, including through the trees! Lifts get you up to about 2,650m at its highest but given the resort is snow sure and nothing sits below the village you're never below 1,860m so the snow really isn't an issue. The lift pass is very reasonable and for a family of 4 it came in at £690 total for the week on the family pass. That's very good value vs the big named resorts and gives you access to a number of slopes in nearby Claviere which is accessed by a green run across what is a golf course in the summer. You can buy a pass that covers you for the whole Vialattea (the Milky Way) meaning you can if you want ski a huge area covering Sestriere, Sauze d'Oulx, Pragalletto and Sansicario, all high altitude Italian resorts. This is over 400km of slopes so a vast area. In terms of mountain restaurants, this is one of the down sides. Options are fairly limited and serviced on one side of the mountain by with a high volume self service restaurant or on the other side by a smart and lively restaurant at the top of the first chalet lift out of town. Aside from the limited mountain restaurants you can ski down to the village where there are plenty of options. Accommodation varies from high quality hotels including the Anova where we stayed which is ski in ski out and which has a great bar and restaurant, its sister hotel le Chalet Blanc and then a handful of other hotels and then a large number of self catered apartments. Apres Ski is relatively limited, and confined to the main street. Don't expect the Moosevert! Its fairly tame so if you're a party animal then its probably going to be a bit of a disappointment. There are a number of restaurants and value tends to be reasonable, one in particular Caesars, is astonishingly good value. Four of us ate well and had a bottle of wine and deserts for 58! Other venues are more expensive but not crazy and the hotels all encourage non residents. Ski hire is particularly good with a number of shops including a couple of shops specialising in high end off piste skis (Blackcrows etc). Outside of skiing Entertainment tends to revolve around the hotels or the restaurants and bars along the main street, but its not a late night venue. There is a terrific ride on the luge which is essentially a theme park ride on rails through the trees for about 1.5km and there is also an ice rink and a large fairly new spa and pool. All in all I would recommend the resort for great skiing, definitely snow sure, some great tree lined runs and for those that want it some great off piste. Its a good family resort and for those that aren't looking for wild nightlife you won't go far wrong!

A snow sure resort ideal for families and expert skiers too. Ski into Italy to Sestriere or Sauze doux or 15 minutes drive/taxi to Serre Chevalier for a fun day out. The resort is quiet and great value compared to the usual favourites in France. Weve be going for 30 years - give it a go.

Often dismissed as a family resort but there is great and varied skiing. Well prepared pistes and safety is paramount. New investment in lifts and snow cannons is helping. Once away from the main access lifts then you can enjoy quieter slopes. It's height means the snow is often better than in other Via Lattea resorts. Have been able to find some very good restaurants and cafes and generally the staff have been very friendly. If you have a car then other French resorts are also close to enjoy a day out elsewhere. Plenty to explore in the Via Lattea when the links are open. Hotels can be expensive with few options but self catering is plentiful.

Really nice quiet resort that has the added bonus to ski into Italy. Limited places for apres and eating out but that didn't effect our holiday. Friendly staff, chilled out skiing on some of the most picturesque runs we've skied on.

I cannot sing montgenevres praises enough, I have worked two ski seasons here and then visited every year since 2012. Its a hidden gem with great intermediate runs and options for beginners. Such a family vibe to the resort with lots of options to eat out and have a drink. The added bonus is having the ability to ski over the border into Italy and its great links to the surrounding ski resorts which you can get to via gondolas. I visited a lot of ski resorts and Montgenevre is just such a special place with something for everyone.
