The Grands Bains du Monêtier
A veritable institution in the Serre Chevalier Vallée Briançon valley, the Grands Bains du Monêtier are a must. They benefit from a grandiose natural setting and a unique natural resource: naturally hot spring water gushing out at 44°.
The Romans already knew about Monêtier's two springs and their benefits. The virtues of the water are said to have given its name to the river Aquisana (healing water), now known as Guisane.
After a moment of relaxation in the indoor and outdoor Grands Bains areas, the Roman trilogy and hammam, the musical grotto or the Romano-Irish area, you can enjoy treatments and massages, and dine in the Grands Bains restaurant
Fresh moments and revitalizing experiences.
Do you dream of immersing yourself in crystal-clear, chemical-free water and enjoying a bathing experience in perfect harmony with nature? Then it's time to discover organic bathing, the natural pools that are revolutionizing the way we bathe. And what if you could try it out in the heart of the Alps, in Serre Chevalier? We tell you all about it.
What is an organic swimming pool?
A bio-swimming pool, or natural swimming pool, is a pool designed to accommodate bathers while respecting the principles of the aquatic ecosystem. Gone are the days of chlorine, bromine and other chemical products, as a bio-swimming pool uses aquatic plants and natural filters to purify the water. It's a bit like diving into a mountain lake, except that it's perfectly safe, well-maintained and, above all, you don't disturb the local flora and fauna.
You're invited to swim in water filtered by plants, rocks and a biological regeneration system. All without harming the environment. Imagine floating among the water lilies, surrounded by butterflies and dragonflies, while breathing in the pure mountain air. Yes, that's right: back to basics... without the floating algae and inquisitive fish.
Why is it good for nature?
Organic swimming isn't just cool for you, it's cool for the planet too. Unlike conventional pools, these natural oases release no chemicals into the environment. No chlorine, no industrial detergents: the water remains pure and healthy, even after thousands of dives.
Natural filtration systems using plants and sand preserve the local ecosystem. What's more, they create ideal habitats for aquatic flora and fauna. And what about the beauty of the landscape? A veritable paradise for birds, insects and local plants.
And what are the advantages for you of trying organic swimming?
What's in it for you? Well, a bath in nature, of course! Imagine swimming in soft water, purified by plants and without the pungent smell of chlorine lingering on your skin. It's a real comfort for your skin and your lungs. What's more, organic baths are often located in enchanting spots, right in the heart of nature. A perfect opportunity to reconnect with the earth, while offering your senses a new experience.
But that's not all! You'll feel a bit like an eco-hero. Yes, by choosing organic bathing, you're supporting sustainable, environmentally-friendly initiatives. You can be proud of yourself: you're swimming in a project that hasn't just been designed to please your feet, but to preserve our beautiful planet.
In Serre Chevalier: the ultimate organic experience

Serre Chevalier offers not 1 but 2 organic baths in the heart of the mountains, in an exceptional natural setting.

Imagine the scenario: after an epic day's hiking in the mountains, what could be better than relaxing in pure water, surrounded by breathtaking scenery? It's as if nature is offering you a well-deserved caress.
So why hesitate?
There's no excuse! Trying organic swimming is not only good for you, it's also good for the planet. And when it's in the idyllic setting of Serre Chevalier, it's an experience not to be missed. So don't wait any longer to take an eco-responsible plunge!
