Station La Pesse

Station La Pesse sits on a mountainside in the Jura range between 1160 and 1320 meters elevation. The terrain offers small slopes and practice areas with gentle runs suited mainly for beginning skiers.

The station emerged in the early 1900s when the mountain community opened its natural slopes to visitors. It has remained a center for ski teaching and accessible winter sports in the region ever since.

The local ski school teaches beginners and experienced skiers using traditional French methods. Many families return each year to reconnect with instructors and develop their skills together.

The site is easiest to reach by road from La Pesse with parking available near the slope. Since conditions depend heavily on weather, it makes sense to check snow levels before visiting.

The resort is known for its snow cannon system that produces artificial snow during cold periods. This makes the season more predictable and allows teaching to continue even when natural conditions are thin.
