Super Dévoluy (Superdévoluy / La Joue du Loup)

Super Dévoluy (Superdévoluy) and its linked village La Joue du Loup sit in a high limestone bowl in the Hautes-Alpes, reached by just three roads through the massif. It's a family-oriented, ski-to-the-door resort with a purpose-built 1960s snow-front, a short walk from shops and lifts, and an official council-run motorhome service point right in the village.
