The Alpen Lodge Hotel & Spa combines classic materials of stone, wood and copper to create a sophisticated and modern hotel, offering spacious rooms and suites near to the Eucherts Express chairlift. After a day on the slopes the extensive wellness area is the perfect spot to unwind and relax. 

Fantastic location

Being just 450 metres from the Eucherts Express chairlift, the ideal location allows you direct access to the Franco/Italian San Bernardo ski area - linking La Rosière with La Thuile it’s the only Franco-Italian ski area in the Northern Alps. 

Soothing spa and relaxation

Return from a day on the mountain and make the most of the extensive wellness area and spa. Have a dip in the infinity pool with magnificent mountain views - it is a haven for relaxation and tranquillity after a day on the slopes. Or pamper yourself with the steam room, sauna, whirlpools, Himalayan salt wall and sensory showers. For the ultimate treat, massage and beauty treatments are also available to book locally. If you want to stay active, there is also a cardio and fitness room.

Food and drink

Offered on a bed and breakfast basis, you can enjoy a extensive buffet breakfast each day which includes fresh pastries, breads, fruit and local cheeses - all while admiring views of the incredible Tarentasie valley. This gives you a chance to sample some of the local cuisine each evening, there is a wide choice of Savoyard restaurants serving traditional fondue, or you can enjoy a plate of pasta in one of the many Italian restaurants. For a bit of evening entertainment the M'Bar at the Alpen Lodge hosts weekly music nights, whether it be jazz, blues or pop rock.

La Rosière

  • Resort altitude of 1,850 metres
  • Over 150 kilometres of slopes 
  • 8 green runs, 27 blue runs, 38 red runs and 18 black runs 

Set high above the picturesque Upper Tarentaise valley, La Rosière is a brilliantly well thought out resort. Big enough to have all the facilities any skier could wish for, but also small enough to be known as one of the Alps’ friendliest resorts with beautiful wood and stone chalets, this resort is a perfect choice for couples and families wanting to spend some quality time together in a picturesque setting. 

Skiing and snowboarding in La Rosière

Due to it's high altitude, the La Rosière-Espace San Bernardo ski area has record levels of snowfall with it's ski season starting in December and running until the end of April. Its sunny, wide open slopes are snow-sure with the main lifts and pistes all radiating out directly from the centre of resort. Within the ski area, you'll find there is a mix of gentle blue runs, cruisy reds and tough blacks plus some renowned off-piste areas - so you're really spoilt for choice. The ski resort also caters for boarders, with a lot of free-riding and a snow park well set up for beginners and intermediates. New for this winter season the Dahu draglift has been updated to a four seater chairlift, this gives beginners easier access to two green slopes - Dahu and Cabri, and two blue slopes - Gelinotte and Marmottons. Skiers can also join onto the Plan du Repos chairlift and access the wider San Bernardo area.
