Serre Chevalier of the SKI but not only !
The little pleasures of Serre Che that we test for you!
have a little barbeque on the slopes for a break!
As soon as we arrive at Serre Chevalier Vallée Briançon, we put on our skis to enjoy the 250km of slopes on 410 hectares of marked out area, and we take a break on the new picnic area located at Grand Alpe (foot of the Grand Serre chairlift).
At an altitude of 2191m, the area overlooks the valley above the village of Saint Chaffrey/Chantemerle with a breathtaking view of the mythical Col du Granon and the entire Serre Chevalier Briançon valley. Comfortably installed on one of the deckchairs or picnic tables, you can enjoy the planchas to grill your own BBQ, while enjoying the view!
The other picnic areas :

These spaces, with exceptional panoramas, are equipped with :
- planchas available every day* of the season from 11:30 am to 3 pm,
