In the last few years La Rosiere has completely changed it's face and with the addition of 2 new chair lifts taking one up to 2800m it has put itself on the map of top ski resorts in the Alps. Together with La Thuile, in Italy, it offers one over 150km of piste runs. It is one of the best kept secret spots for off-piste skiing in the Alps mainly due to it's low number of tourist beds in relation to it's lift capacity. La Rosiere has only 4000 tourist beds in the resort and an uphill lift capacity of over 50,000 skiers per hour. Other nearby ski resorts have equal beds to uphill capacity. This means pistes are empty especially in low season periods and there is plenty of off-piste for everyone. I've skied untracked off-piste even 5 days after a snow fall which is pretty much unheard of anywhere else. It's my favourite off-piste paradise.
