Just above the village lie the resort’s nursery slopes, all of which are sunny and gentle. Beyond this, learners will have to tackle the network of blues below Roc Noir, but most of these are pretty mellow. Once these are mastered, confident intermediates will have free reign over the linked ski area with La Thuile – just note that you need to catch long draglifts to get across.
The shadier slopes of La Thuile are slightly steeper, with lots of excellent groomed reds and a couple of blacks. Before the new lifts were built the challenges on the French side were somewhat limited, but the Mont Valaisan sector has several steeper red runs and is home to some fine off piste, particularly slightly later in the winter when the rocky terrain has been fully covered.
The location of La Rosière means that it is nice and quiet in the winter – when the mountain pass is open, the road running through it can be busy. Throw in spectacular views over the Isère valley and the setting is ideal if you’re looking for a relaxing and picturesque stay.
Lots of the accommodation is in well-appointed chalets so you won’t need to eat out too often, but there are some good local eateries to choose from on your chalet host’s night off. Several bars are dotted around town too, offering a relaxed atmosphere – the après ski here is nothing like a few kilometres away in Val d’Isere.
Dates for the 2023/24 season are still to be confirmed; the season at La Rosiere typically runs from late November to Mid-April.
