Les Deux Alpes, established in the 1940s, is a premier ski resort located in the Isère department of France. The resort is committed to sustainability and eco-friendly practices, in order to preserve the natural environment and enhance the overall experience of such a stunning alpine environment. The village stretches along a high plateau, and the main street is lined with numerous restaurants, bars, and shops. It’s a lively, bustling centre (especially during ski season), and host to a variety of accommodations, from budget-friendly apartments to four-star hotels, catering to all kinds of preferences and budgets.
The high altitude of Les Deux Alpes makes it a dependable destination for skiing throughout the season, due to its reliable, natural snow. The 410 hectares of marked runs cater to all skill levels, from beginners to advanced skiers, with a variety of runs and off-piste opportunities. The ‘upside-down’ layout of the resort generally means that the easier slopes can be found at higher elevations, while the more challenging runs make their way downhill towards the village. With one of the highest skiable peaks in the Alps, this means that visitors have the chance to descend from 3,600 metres to 1,300 metres without the use of ski lifts..
Les Deux Alpes has a lively and diverse après-ski scene that kicks off on the slopes and continues into the village. If you’re the type who likes to celebrate straight after skiing, Pano Bar halfway down the slopes is a prime example, with an electric atmosphere just as the sun starts to set over the mountains. In the village, the après scene comes alive in the evenings - bars, pubs, cosy spots for a quiet drink, and buzzing venues with live music and DJs. If cocktails are more your thing, there are venues that specialise in creative mixes, while others offer a more laid-back lounge feel. Les Deux Alpes also has a strong food scene, with plenty of restaurants serving everything from traditional mountain dishes like raclette and fondue to international cuisine. And for those who prefer something different, night skiing is also available, letting you glide under the stars on illuminated slopes for a unique alpine experience.
