With 220 km of pistes spread over two main peaks and access to glacier skiing at 3,600m, Les Deux Alpes is among France's best ski resorts for both families and thrill-seekers, offering a vibrant atmosphere with plenty of options on and off the slopes.

Skiing in Les Deux Alpes

Beginners: Free lifts at the village base serve gentle greens. Higher up, surprising for such altitude, you’ll find easy blues on the glacier, great for confident early progression.

Intermediates: Blues and reds drop from 3,200 m to resort for a 2,300 m vertical. The runs off the Diable chair and in the Toura sector are favourites for consistent pitch and morning sun.

Advanced & off-piste: Steep blacks like Diable 5 and mogul-strewn Fée 5 test technique. For real adventure, hire a guide to reach La Grave’s legendary off-piste via the glacier link.

Snowboarding: “Freestyle Land” in the Toura bowl offers lines for all levels plus a super-pipe when snow allows. Natural half-pipes under the Petite Aiguille chair and reliable lift access keep boarders smiling.
