Chamrousse ski resort

Snow Range

1400-2250m

Exclusive FREE LIFT PASS OFFER

Still relatively unknown to skiers from the UK, Chamrousse ski resort is a fantastic destination, just waiting to be discovered, offering superb scenery in an excellent, but relatively uncrowded ski area, with a good variety of slopes and almost 100km of piste. The resort consists of three levels – Le Recoins (1650m), Chamrousse (1700) and Roche Beranger (1750m) – all linked by a free shuttle bus. We offer wonderfully spacious apartments in Chamrousse (1700), offering magnificent views over the mountains. Chamrousse is particularly appealing for families, beginners and intermediate skiers. With short transfers from the airport, resort run childcare available (from 3 months to 12 years) and enough off slope activities to keep all of the family satisfied. All this, along with a FREE lift pass offered all season to all Crystal customers, makes Chamrousse an excellent choice.
