Somewhere between a derby, a rally, an enduro, an orienteering race, and an obstacle course like 'mud-day'... the Grand Prix de Serre Chevalier is an explosive cocktail that makes it an extraordinary event.
The 2025 edition took place from Friday 21 to Sunday 23 March 2025.
Do you enjoy freeriding? Does the freedom of off-piste appeal to you but your fears are holding you back? We've thought of you and come up with Brut de Neige. These courses are for thrill-seekers who want to play it safe... just like you.
You'll be skiing on ungroomed, marked and safe slopes. Thanks to Brut de Neige, you can discover the authenticity of old-fashioned skiing and enjoy all-snow skiing for unrivalled skiing pleasure. The Brut de Neige motto: off-piste sensations in complete safety. From one end of the Serre Chevalier ski area to the other, on the heights, you'll find Brut de Neige areas. Our lifeguards will be happy to help you.
Location: the whole ski area
Level: black runs. Good skiing skills are essential.
