What is the weather like in Montgenèvre?

It isn’t a matter of luck that the sun (almost) always shines down on Montgenèvre. Its ideal geographical location and unique orientation, Hautes-Alpes, means that this special place holds the magical meteorological recipe for many sunny days, even during winter - a minimum of 300 days of the year, in fact, which is a très bon Alps average.

Whether you are considering a comeback or plan to fall in love (and you will!) for the first time, with the Alps - a holiday in the mountains, Hautes-Alpes, is a favourable option. With us as your British French-Alps based holiday specialists - with our ears to the ground, literally, at 1,860m altitude - you are in for a treat.

Updated information on travelling to Montgenèvre from the UK.

A few minutes from Montgenèvre lies the enchanting little hamlet of Les Alberts, which forms part of the district, commune of Montgenèvre. Montgenèvre and Les Alberts are linked geographically and historically. Les Alberts is nestled at the foot of Col de Montgenèvre and perfectly positioned as the south end starting point of the Vallée de la Clarée – a region of undulating, unspoilt landscapes, encompassed by majestic mountains and a scattering of picturesque, traditional villages along the way.

Being tucked away in the Haute-Alpes at 1,860m does not deter from the fact that Montgenèvre is easily accessible from the nearest airport in the region. Montgenèvre is practically situated just 1km away from the Italian borderline, which makes the nearest airport across the border in Turin, the capital city of Piedmont in Northern Italy.
