For years, Les Deux Alpes has been a cornerstone of French winter sports. The presence of the glacier, reaching a staggering 3,600 metres, ensures 100% snow reliability and even allows for summer skiing.
The resort is famous for its vibrant après-ski scene, which is unusually lively by French standards, making it a top choice for younger crowds. The resort is split into Les 2 Alpes 1650 and 1800, both providing quick access to the slopes and a wealth of shops and restaurants.

The ski area is remarkably versatile. Intermediate skiers will particularly enjoy the series of blue runs linking the very top of the ski area at 3,600 metres all the way down to the resort – a stunning panoramic descent that shouldn't be missed. For those seeking a challenge, the La Fée sector is a real playground for advanced skiers, offering steep slopes and a wilder mountain atmosphere.
Beginners can progress safely in several dedicated learning areas, located either at resort level or higher up in the Belle Étoile learning zone at 2,100 metres. Additionally, the Vallée Blanche sector is renowned for offering the sunniest slopes in the ski area and is accessible to all ability levels.
Freestyle enthusiasts will find a world-class snowpark here, while families can enjoy the quieter side of the long, stretched-out village. A major bonus for any visitor is the 6-day lift pass, which grants access to the Grande Galaxie ski areas. This includes partner resorts such as Alpe d’Huez, Serre Chevalier, Puy-Saint-Vincent, Montgenèvre, and Sestriere.
