Hairpin road
The access road climbs from the valley in a series of tight bends. It is one of the most striking lines on the map and the route every visitor drives.

The resort
About this Risoul map poster
Risoul has two faces. The old village stands on the slopes above Guillestre and the Durance valley in the Hautes-Alpes. Risoul 1850, the ski station, was built much higher up in the forest near the tree line. On a map a winding road ties them together, its hairpin bends stacked one above another as it climbs the mountainside.
The ski area is linked with neighbouring Vars to form the Forêt Blanche domain, named after the larch and pine forests that cover much of the lower slopes. Many runs pass between the trees, which gives the resort a more sheltered character than the open, high-altitude stations further north.
A Risoul map poster makes the contrast easy to see. The old village has a tight, irregular pattern of lanes. The station above is a compact group of buildings around its lift base. Between them lies a wide band of forest crossed by the road, and below sits the flat, open floor of the Durance valley.

Risoul 1850
The purpose-built station forms a small, dense group of residences and lift bases. It contrasts with the scattered pattern of farms and hamlets further down.
Durance valley
Below the commune the Durance flows through a broad, flat valley near Guillestre, a wide band of open ground set against the steep slopes above it.
