Are you a fan of snowmobiling, snowboarding, alpine skiing, telemark skiing, sledding, or even freeriding? Welcome to Le Sauze, a proud little resort in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence.
Spanning 7 hamlets, it features a ski area comprising 65 magnificent, well-exposed runs, served by 22 lifts ranging in elevation from 1,400 to 2,400 meters.
Its 34 runs are suitable for all skill levels, whether you’re a seasoned pro or a weekend skier. With 6 green runs, 12 blue runs, 14 red runs, and 2 black runs, there’s something to delight every type of vacationer.
A snowpark, 3 boardercross courses, 1 “kid park,” and a training stadium round out the offerings at the Sauze resort, which also features 4 mountain restaurants—perfect for refueling between runs.
While the resort is bustling during the day, it stays lively at night thanks to a varied and attractive lineup of evening activities: headlamp sledding, snowcat rides, ice karting, as well as snowmobiling, torchlight runs, and family-friendly “snake gliss” will liven up your evenings.
If you love the mountains but aren’t so into skiing or snowboarding (yes, that can happen!), then snowshoeing seems like a great option for enjoying the snow-covered panoramas of Le Sauze during the winter.
Starting from the resort, numerous marked (but ungroomed) trails are available for a perfect connection with nature, in complete tranquility, far from the hustle and bustle of the heart of the ski area.
Whether on your own, with a partner, or with a guide, you’ll discover everything that makes this lovely corner of the Ubaye so unique. A must-see? The “Chapeau de Gendarme”! Perched at an altitude of 2,682 meters, this peak—accessible from the Super-Sauze resort via a trail—offers a unique panoramic view of the Bachelard and Ubaye valleys.
The Montagne de l’Alp (2,775 m), La Rouchinière (2,709 m), the Tête des Fanets (2,568 m), the Routres Valley, and the La Goutta Valley are just some of the peaks and other splendid spots that have earned the resort its reputation—we highly recommend exploring them during your adventures.
After a few scenic and active excursions, be sure to visit the indoor pool in Le Sauze: Certified “Famille Plus,” it attracts visitors with its views of the surrounding peaks, as well as its water heated to 28.5°C, its solarium, its aquabikes, and its lounge area.
Finally, if you’re visiting Le Sauze in the summer, 30 kilometers of marked trails will delight hiking enthusiasts and lovers of beautiful scenery.
You can also go rafting and try other whitewater sports on the Ubaye River, explore Le Sauze by mountain bike on its enduro trails, play tennis, go trail running, rock climbing, go fishing, take a horseback (or pony) ride, play golf, go paragliding, try a tree-top adventure course, or even jump on a trampoline… There’s something to delight the whole family
During the winter season, it’s essential to equip your car properly.
