Plenty of wide, cruisey, sunny blues are yours to practice your skills or as a cooldown if you've tackled the black piste "Etagne" with a 74% angle! If that hasn't satisfied your adrenaline thirst, head over to the Italian side and look for la Francois Berthod which often is used for ski and telemark world cups!

Other Activities

Aprés ski in La Rosiere

Not known for a particularly heavy apres ski and nightlife scene, there are still plenty of options for food and drink on and off the mountain!

Check out Village Igloo for some on-mountain drinks, often with a live DJ blasting out some tunes whilst you relax in the sun. We also love Via Ferrata whether you're looking for some apres or something to nibble on.

Transfers to La Rosiere

There are no shared transfers to La Rosiere so the only way to get there is to either drive or get private transfers. Private transfers offer a door to door service and there's no waiting around at the airport. For groups of 8 (which is the sweet spot for minibus transfers) they will be pretty good value.
