Luc Alphand Ski Run (Chantemerle)

Named after the local alpine ski champion, the Luc Alphand run is a legendary black piste renowned for its challenging gradient and technical sections. Starting from the top of the Serre Ratier sector (around 2200m) and descending towards Chantemerle (1350m), it offers a significant vertical drop and often hosts international ski competitions. It's a must-do for expert skiers looking for an exhilarating experience, often groomed to perfection. Skiers can expect breathtaking views of the valley on clear days. Best ridden in the morning for optimal snow conditions. Access typically via the Ratier gondola or Combes chairlift.
