What Skiers Say About Montgenèvre

Montgenèvre is consistently described as a quiet, family-friendly resort sitting on the French-Italian border at 1,860m. Reviewers span beginner to expert level, with the majority being intermediate skiers. The most repeated themes are minimal lift queues, wide gentle pistes suitable for learning, and good snow reliability due to altitude. Nearly all reviews mention the ability to ski into Italy and access the wider Via Lattea area. The limited après-ski and nightlife is noted repeatedly, with reviewers either appreciating the relaxed atmosphere or finding entertainment options sparse. Several users return year after year, citing value for money and uncrowded slopes as key draws.

Montgenevre is a charming little resort, not very well known so great for those wanting to ski without the crowds. Perfect for beginners as there are long sweeping greens and easy cruisy blues. Not the easiest to get to as there is only a weekly transfer, but car hire is not too expensive and the resort is about an hour away from Turin. Great place for families

it's a lovely little place. especially good for beginners as the green runs are long and wide. some runs are busy and others will make you feel as though you are on the mountain by yourself. it's very popular with the weekend kids ski clubs from france and italy, but very quiet during the week.

Great for all abilities. Loved taking beginners to the top and showing them how to ski all the way to the bottom on green/blue.

Excellent family resort - a bit of everything. Gondola all the way to the top if you’re a boarder who hates drags: chairs as well. Family had an amazing time!

Great family friendly, quiet ski resort. Good choice for beginners with inviting ski schools and beginner slopes ranging up to some pretty interesting advanced runs towards Italy.

Its a great family resort with good intermediate skiing and great access to lots of other resorts. The apres is lacking in the town, where you struggle to find a bar not full of families.

First time skiing and we loved the resort! Perfect for beginners as there is a ski lift which is free where you can access one of the green runs. Free village bus to accom runs regularly throughout the day saved our legs walking up the hill. Plenty of rental shops. Lovely bar/restaurant at the top of the blue run.

We are a large group who stay all over Embrun and drive out to different resorts. This is our favourite even though a schlep. It’s very quiet, pretty and cheaper than France. Italian coffee and food! Free parking as well if you drive on from main carpark and head to Claviere. Great restaurant there with sun terrace.

I was in this resort for three years in a row. Just love the possibility to ski on French site and Italian site on one skipass. So you can have French crepe for breakfast and Italian pizza afternoon. There is always something to do and highly recommend the Spa

I really enjoyed my Montgenevre ski experience, I was able to ski into Italy from France, there were some lovely family run restaurants and cafes and good storage for skis and boot down by the main lifts.

Great for family holidays. Nice quiet runs and lifts. A good mix of different skill level runs. Nice cosy mountain cafes and plenty of restaurants and shops etc. Been coming here since the kids were little and now they're adults at Uni. We've been to other resorts buy this is by far our fave.

Montgenevre is a great resort for families. There are plenty of ski-in ski-out accommodation options, and the ski school is excellent. Have been there 5 times with the kids (11/14) and it has been great. Not much night life so don't consider it if you want a lot of Apres Ski options. The runs have plenty of variety with all levels catered to and good links to neighbouring resorts too.
