Les Deux Alpes Overview

Les Deux Alpes is a snow-sure and popular destination for school ski groups during term-time. Huge recent investment in the ski area has also opened it up to all levels of skier, with the addition of easier green and blue runs back to village level. Often known as an ‘upside down’ resort, some of the easiest slopes are to be found at altitude, on the glacier area, meaning the whole mountain is immediately accessible to even the most novice skier. Intermediates and advanced skiers are also well catered, including a 10km blue run and some daunting blacks.

New for 2025 – The 3S Jandri Lift

Less time waiting and more time skiing! Discover a new way to enjoy Les Deux Alpes with the 3S Jandri lift. Replacing the old Jandri Express, it reduces travel time from 40 minutes down to 17 minutes – it handles 3,000 people per hour.
