With a magnificent view of the Embrun and the valley of the Durance, the Orres resort offers a breathtaking panoramic view of Lake Serre-Ponçon, one of the largest artificial lakes in Europe.
Thanks to its high altitude and its exposure to the north, the resort benefits from excellent snowfall together with
all the brightness of an already Mediterranean climate.
The 35 marked runs (3 black, 21 red, 4 blue and 7 green), laid out on the mountain meadows or through a vast forest
of larches and unspoilt open areas, with a total length of 90 km, drop over a total height of 1,170 metres from
2720 down to 1550 metres. They benefit from 21 mechanical lifts, with 3 high-speed detachable grip chair lifts, 5
fixed grip chair lifts and 13 ski tows.
The black run of La Pousterle (with a 900 drop over a total length of 3,600 metres) is one of the 3 runs in France
approved by the International Ski Federation for downhill skiing. It plays host every year in January to the European
Cup for downhill racing. The resort is equipped with snow guns covering 70% of the total area.
In addition to skiing, the resort offers a very wide range of other fun-filled or sporting nature-related activities for
you to discover the mountain differently: excursions on foot or on snow-shoes, paragliding, snowmobiling, biathlon,
ice falls, skijoring and riding, sledging with sledge dogs, etc.
