Visitor Reviews of Chamrousse
Belinda from United Kingdom writes:
Chamrousse is a great place to learn to ski or improve. Great for families. Really enjoyed myself there and looking forward to returning this month. There are enough slopes for all levels.
Was never too crowded! Close to airport too so no long coach transfers.
