AURIS-EN-OISANS | 1450 - 1800 m  Domaine des Grandes Rousses
From its perch on the side of a mountain, the Auris resort offers dual benefits: first, its ski-link to the foot of the Alpe-d'Huez domain and second, its friendly atmosphere-just the type that you might expect from a small resort. Add to those its (steep!) pistes that end at the foot of the resort's buildings and you get a destination to delight both families and expert skiers.
