Les Deux Alpes

Home to one of the largest skiable glaciers in Europe, Les Deux Alpes guarantees snow on top and serves up a famously big party at the bottom. Summer skiing too, when the glacier reopens for freestyle camps.

Ski-in/ski-out

The long, linear resort runs along a single street with the slopes on the eastern flank, so most accommodation is a short walk from a lift, and many open onto the lower runs.

Get to know the resort

The layout is unusual: the village sits on a shelf and the best, longest runs are up on the glacier, reached by a chain of lifts to 3,600 m. That makes it snow-sure and a paradise for beginners and freestylers, while the long red back to town and the off-piste towards La Grave keep stronger skiers busy. The nightlife is among the liveliest in the French Alps.
