La Rosière is right on the French border with Italy, on the Petit St Bernard pass (used, it is said, by Hannibal en-route from Spain to Rome) and linked with the Italian resort of La Thuile. The two resorts, although unlikely stablemates, form a substantial ski area.
La Rosière also provides a useful gateway to some exciting helicopter skiing across the border, enabling French heli-skiers (who are banned from practising the sport in their own country) to heli-ski in Italy to their hearts' content, before returning to France's Tarentaise Valley. The combined area has 33 lifts and 135km of pistes.
