The small mountaineers have their own space on the Serre Chevalier area!

Le Camp des Marmottes, located on the Serre Chevalier domain, is a large, natural playground for children seeking high‑altitude adventures.

Accessible at the top of the Ratier gondola, this fun-filled area invites young explorers to play, climb and explore freely. Wooden games, a zip line, balance courses and a cabin with a climbing wall: everything is designed to offer young mountain lovers unforgettable playtime moments, filled with laughter and discovery.

The Camp des Marmottes lives up to its name: here, nature takes center stage. Thanks to telescopes, children and parents can observe marmots, iconic animals of the alpine wildlife, in their natural environment.

A must-do family activity in Serre Chevalier, perfect for combining play, nature and the mountains

Did you know?

Here’s a bit more about the Alpine marmot, the true mascot of our mountains

  • Marmots warn themselves of impending danger by whistling. Pay attention, you will surely hear them.

  • They live in family with a sense of respect of the hierarchy and of the group cohesion.

  • Grooming and trimming, games but also fights are part of their daily life (when they are awake!).

  • Their predators are the golden eagle and the fox.

  • They dig long and very branched galleries in which they can hibernate up to 6 months. This is the reason why you cannot see marmots during wintertime: they sleep in their comfortable and warm burrow. Snow in quantity is not for them! They prefer to leave snow to the skiers who always want to have more.

The best time to observe them discreetly is when they come out of their burrow to feed in the morning or afternoon.

To avoid damaging their health, please do not feed them.
