Sollières-Sardières is a former commune in the Savoie department in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region in south-eastern France. On 1 January 2017, it was merged into the new commune Val-Cenis. It is located in the heart of the Alps in the upper Maurienne valley. Part of the region is within the alpine national park of Vanoise. The remaining land is not included in the protected area called "zone peripherique" which has lesser environmental protection enforcement rules.
