Hotels in Hautes-Alpes, France

Hautes-Alpes is a high-altitude region in the French Alps, famous for its year-round sunshine and stunning peaks like the Écrins Massif. Winters bring deep snow perfect for skiing at resorts like Serre Chevalier, with temperatures often dropping to 23°F (-5°C), while summers are warm and dry at 77°F (25°C), ideal for hiking the GR54 trail or mountain biking past turquoise lakes. If you visit in spring, you can raft the Durance River's rapids, or in autumn, drive the Route des Grandes Alpes for larch forests turning gold-without the summer crowds.
