Massif de Chamrousse

In the Massif de Chamrousse, to the east of Grenoble, are Chamrousse itself (alt. 1,650-1,750m/5,410-5,740ft), with its excellent facilities for winter sports, and Uriage-les-Bains, at the foot of the Belledonne range. The dominant feature of the landscape is the Croix de Chamrousse (2,255 m/8,383ft; cableway), from which there are extensive panoramic views.
