Les Deux Alpes

More to be added soon

Info

The resort is set at 1650 metres and offers fantastic scenery and a lively nightlife. It is renowned for its excellent snow conditions, high pistes and long hours of sunshine. Les Deux Alpes is a superb resort with excellent facilities for all levels of skier and boarder. There is extensive skiing on the long runs from one of the largest glaciers in the Alps, which also boasts great intermediate runs ideal for gaining confidence. The village is home to a wide range of après-ski activities including parapenting, night skiing, ice-skating, skidoos, indoor and outdoor swimming, bowling, squash, sauna, gym, ice grotto and helicopter trips making it a popular holiday destination.

Les Deux Alpes is a big party town described as like entering Las Vegas in the Alpes.

What it lacks in Alpine charm, it makes up for with the biggest glacier in Europe, high and snow sure slopes, a great park, some good off piste, and links to the world renowned 'resort' of La Grave.

Unless all you want is peace and quiet and lots of tree skiing, you could certainly do a lot worse than end up here for a season!
