La Rosière, a resort with many tourist assets
Located in the heart of the Alps, La Rosière is a Savoyard resort renowned for its international ski area linking France and Italy, its grandiose landscapes and its convivial atmosphere. Summer and winter alike, the commune attracts visitors through the diversity of its activities: sun-drenched skiing, mountain hiking, local gastronomy and the authenticity of a village that has preserved its identity.
With the desire to strengthen its appeal and offer an iconic visual landmark, the municipality chose to install XXL giant letters “LA ROSIERE”. An initiative that transforms the public space into a truly iconic place, ideal for residents and visitors alike.
