Exterior
Our apartment is situated in the village of Le Monetiers-le-Bains, the highest in the Serre Chevalier ski area (250kms of pistes). It is close to the slopes (about 150-200m) which are accessed via a footbridge across the Guisane River. There is ample skiing for all levels, and there are many off-piste routes to be explored.
It is 12kms from the main town of Briancon, a Napoleonic walled town built by the famous military architect Vauban, and 20 minutes from the Italian border. In summer there are a multitude of activities to enjoy, climbing, walking, via ferrata, rafting, kayaking, and mountain biking.

The area is also famous for it’s close proximity to the major mountain stages of the Tour de France, the Col du Lauteret, Granon, Galibier and Alpe d’Huez are all close by. Across the Col du Lauteret is the glacier of La Meije, and you can enjoy summer skiing at Deux Alpes.
Out of season, it is a quiet, relaxed place to be, just take in the views from the terrace.

Things to do locally
Ski and boot hire is available from several stores in the village. Details will be given withe your booking information. Lift passes can be bought from the office at the foot of the pistes. There is ample car parking space there, but you probably won’t need to use it, as it is just a short walk away, across a new footbridge, Ski school can be booked through Eurekaski, a British ski school, based in the village. or locally through ESF. The ski area is one of the largest in France, and being in the Southern Alps, enjoys 300 days of sunshine each year. For 2008, the buildings at the foot fo the lifts are being renewed, and the Grands Bains Thermal Baths will be open.
walking, hilking etc are all just outside the door, and the chairlift is open in July and August.

Restaurants, foods & wine
There are several restaurants in the village, nearly all of which serve traditional Alpine fondues and raclettes, but usually with additional specialities. Le Kawa is our favourite creperie, and is ideally situated just opposite the Alpen bar. If they are busy, you can wait in the Alpen bar, and they will come and get you when your table is ready . For pizza, there is the Pizzeria des Neiges,which also does excellent steak, and fondue. La Aquisana has an excellent value ‘menu tentation’with fish, gravlax and gorgeous desserts and cheeses.
