Winter Games 2030<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/div>\n\n\n\n

In 2030, the Hautes-Alpes will be more freestyle than ever<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the French Alps<\/strong>, the Southern<\/strong> and Northern<\/strong> Alps<\/strong> have joined forces to create an unprecedented fresco for the 2030<\/strong> Olympic and Paralympic<\/strong> Winter<\/strong> Games. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n
\n

At the heart of this alliance, the Hautes-Alpes<\/strong> set the stage: twenty-six freestyle skiing and snowboarding competitions will take place here, in Serre Chevalier<\/a><\/strong>the largest resort in the Southern Alps, and Montgen\u00e8vre<\/a><\/strong>the doyenne of French resorts. Brian\u00e7on<\/a><\/strong> and its Fort des T\u00eates<\/strong>, a UNESCO World Heritage site, will be transformed into an Olympic village.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

The legacy of the Games will be immense. They will leave the Hautes-Alpes<\/strong> with major advances in terms of regional development and access. Olympism won’t just pass through here, it will take root. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

2030<\/strong>,set a course for epic proportions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Serre Chevalier<\/a><\/strong> and Montgen\u00e8vre<\/a><\/strong> will host the freestyle and snowboard disciplines, with Brian\u00e7on<\/a><\/strong> at the heart of the Olympic program. Beyond the podiums, the Games represent a historic opportunity: top-class infrastructures, local know-how and a youthful outlook on new horizons. The Hautes-Alpes<\/strong> won’t just be hosting the Games, they’ll be making them even better. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The great champions of<\/strong> the Alps<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The champions made in Hautes-Alpes<\/strong> have their spatulas pointed towards 2030<\/strong>: Cyprien Sarrazin<\/strong>, with his fulgurance intact despite the breakage, is aiming for the big event on home soil, as are World Cup winner Nils All\u00e8gre<\/strong>, Nils Alphand<\/strong>, three-time Paralympic champion Arthur Bauchet<\/strong>, cross-country skier Flora Dolci<\/strong> and the new generation on the way. A team in the race, sharpened up, that can turn the Olympic windfall into a harvest of emotions. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

A<\/strong> sporting legacy<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the Hautes-Alpes<\/strong> region, the legacy of the Games<\/strong> is already taking shape: a boom in top-level competition with modernized venues, the regular organization of international events and greater support for local clubs and the inter-regional training center. The reputation of the region is further enhanced by the youth-oriented disciplines of freestyle skiing and snowboarding, which are among the biggest draws at the Olympics. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

A legacy<\/strong>economic<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Economic spin-offs and ripple effects irrigate the Hautes-Alpes, and the event accelerates transformations<\/strong>, as in the case of the Olympic village, which has been partly converted to seasonal housing and home ownership. The legacy can also be seen in the infrastructure: road and rail advances, not forgetting soft paths, and everyday mobility with, in the Brian\u00e7onnais<\/a><\/strong>a high service level bus. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Expectation<\/strong>of additional disciplines<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the Hautes-Alpes<\/strong> region, ambitions already extend beyond the ropes of the safety nets: beyond the acrobats of Serre Chevalier<\/a><\/strong> and Montgen\u00e8vre<\/a><\/strong>the d\u00e9partement is a candidate to open its doors wide to other Olympic events. Imagine ski mountaineering tracing its ridges at sunrise over the peaks of the Ecrins. \u00c9crins<\/a><\/strong>freeride skiing on steep slopes, and KL in Vars<\/a><\/strong>, a human rocket launched against the clock.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
