A little known resort, not far from the larger Serre Chervalier, but with pistes that are well looked after and are enough to keep a family occupied for one weeks beginner/intermediate skiing - fantastic off-piste and ski-touring. There is a second resort 10 minutes away - Puy St Vincent, which is excellent for all levels of skier(see the reviews already written) should you need more variety. The prices are lower than the big resorts and it is much more aimed at families than party animals. If you want to know more ask Alpbase.com they have a great set up renting chalets and apartments (I stayed with them in 2006/7) and will look after you very well. The valley is worth visiting in summer as well!
