La Rosière is a sunny, family-friendly ski resort in the French Alps, perched at 1,850m on the French-Italian border and linked with La Thuile in Italy to form the Espace San Bernardo ski area. It’s known for combining reliable snowfall with plenty of sunshine, offering around 155 to 160km of pistes across a varied domain that suits beginners, intermediates and confident skiers alike. The resort itself has a relaxed, authentic feel with traditional Savoyard-style architecture, a welcoming village atmosphere, and stunning panoramic views across the Tarentaise Valley, making it a great choice for families, mixed-ability groups, and anyone after a quieter alternative to some of the bigger, busier Alpine resorts.
Skiing in La Rosière offers an excellent experience for school ski trips and mixed-ability groups, with a wide variety of terrain across the Espace San Bernardo ski area. With around 160km of pistes linking France and Italy, the resort provides gentle beginner slopes, cruisy blues and reds for developing skiers, and more challenging terrain for advanced groups looking to progress. Its high-altitude position helps provide reliable snow conditions throughout the winter, while the modern lift system makes it easy for groups to move around the mountain efficiently. La Rosière’s open, sunny slopes and well-laid-out ski area also create a welcoming environment for students to build confidence and enjoy a safe, rewarding alpine experience.
La Rosière offers a wide range of activities away from the slopes, making it a great option for groups and non-ski time. Visitors can enjoy snowshoeing and winter walking routes, ice skating, sledging and the X’TREME Luge rail toboggan for more thrill-seeking fun. There are also group activities such as bowling, cinema, laser game and paintball, along with unique mountain experiences like dog sledding and tandem paragliding. With so much variety on offer, the resort provides plenty of ways to stay entertained and make the most of the alpine setting even when not skiing.
Chalet-hotel in an exceptional setting. Luxury double or family rooms. Half-board. Sauna and gym. Groups, corporate holidays and associations welcome.
