Queyras ski areas
Alpine skiing (or downhill skiing)
The Queyras region offers 102 km of downhill ski runs in 4 resorts : Abriès (30 km), Arvieux (15 km), Ceillac (21 km) and Molines Saint- Véran (36 km).
A SINGLE PACKAGE allows you to ski in all four resorts. They are not connected, so it is necessary to take your car, or better still, to use the inter-resort shuttles.
Cross-country (or Nordic) skiing
With almost 150 km of trails and itineraries dedicated to Nordic activities, cross-country skiing, ski touring and snowshoeing.
Queyras is one of the leading Nordic ski areas in the Southern Alps.
Downhill skiing in PRESERVED NATURE where the sun is king
No huge, wide arteries. Here, everything is on a human scale... or made of larch. No hustle and bustle at the bottom of the slopes, no long queues at the lifts.
- Abriès, with its magnificent view of the Viso.
- Arvieux, ideal for learning to ski and for families with children.
- Ceillac, on the Ubac, overlooking the Ubaye valley.
- Molines----Saint-Véran, on the Adret. Here, you're closer to the incomparably blue sky.
