Chalet Chantelevent: An Exceptional Retreat Overlooking the Slopes of Vars

On the southern slope of the Vars resort in the Hautes-Alpes, the Chantelevent chalet spans 400 m² with a south-facing orientation and direct views of the slopes, the Eyssina, and the Écrins Massif. Designed to accommodate up to 24 guests, this luxury chalet with a pool and hot tub is the ideal destination for a vacation with family or friends, or for celebrating a special occasion in a setting that is both spectacular and welcoming.

Vars-Risoul and the Forêt Blanche: a premier ski area

The chalet offers direct access to the Forêt Blanche ski area, which connects Vars and Risoul via 185 km of slopes at altitudes ranging from 1,650 m to 2,750 m. This ski area offers reliable snow cover from December through April, renowned snowparks, freeride zones, and quick access to the lifts from Vars-Sainte-Marie and Vars-Les Claux. It is one of the major ski areas in the Southern Alps, popular with families and experienced skiers alike.

The Hautes-Alpes: Host Region for the 2030 Winter Olympics

The Hautes-Alpes department has been selected as a host region for the 2030 Winter Olympics, with official venues in Montgenèvre, Serre Chevalier, and Briançon—all less than an hour’s drive from Vars. Staying at the Chantelevent chalet means enjoying a prime base in a department that will experience exceptional momentum and visibility as the event approaches, all while remaining within the distinct and equally renowned Vars-Risoul ski area.

A chalet designed for getting together

Recently renovated, Chantelevent offers 9 bedrooms and 8 private bathrooms spread across several levels, along with a dormitory. Each room features comfortable bedding and a smart TV, ensuring that everyone can enjoy a peaceful place to rest, even in a large group.

The heart of the chalet is a bright living area: a dining room for 24 guests, a living room with a wood-burning stove, a fully equipped kitchen, and direct access to one of the two panoramic balconies. A space designed for shared meals, long evenings, and returning from a day on the slopes in good company.

Well-being and relaxation: the true luxury of your stay

Chantelevent stands out for its comprehensive wellness area, a rarity for a property of this size: an outdoor swim spa heated year-round with a jet pool and jacuzzi, a 6-person infrared sauna, a gym, a pool table, and a foosball table. After a day on the slopes or hiking, relaxation begins the moment you return to the chalet.

Vars, a four-season destination

In winter: dog sledding, 360° panoramic views from Peynier, snowmobiling at sunset, giant sledding, snowshoeing at dawn, gourmet breaks at mountain restaurants, and laughter-filled rides on Caribou sleds. In summer: hiking, mountain biking, legendary mountain passes, and proximity to Lake Serre-Ponçon for water sports. With 300 days of sunshine a year, the Hautes-Alpes offer an exceptional setting all year round. During the off-season, enjoy lower rates and a more peaceful atmosphere for a weekend with family or friends.

Included and Customized Services

End-of-stay cleaning, Wi-Fi, baby gear, raclette and fondue sets, washing machine, dryer: everything is designed to make your stay easier. Upon request: private chef, catering, ski instructors, sports guides.
