The Hautes Alpes
- The Hautes-Alpes region is in the Southern French Alpes, just 2 hours drive from both Grenoble & Turin airports.
- There are 15 popular ski resorts, with great snow records, within an hours drive from the region’s main town - Briancon, including Serre-Chevalier, Alp d’huez, Les Deux Alpes, Vars, and Risoul.
- Many people are looking to invest in this area because it’s currently much less ‘commercial’ than the Northern Alpes, so you get more for your money and it’s less ‘spoilt’.
- The area boasts France’s biggest National Park – The Ecrins. Its vast glaciers, rocky ridges and mighty peaks are not only a mecca for climbers and alpinists, but the stunning backdrop of the Park is appreciated by everyone passing through the area.
- The area is a well established all-seasons destination for visitors. With its claim to fame… having 300 days of sunshine a year, it’s a popular area for skiing and mountain sports.
- Despite the development, thankfully the region has maintained its authentic Alpine charm. Among its cultural assets, are weekly traditional markets, ancient chapels and alpine farming communities.
