LES DEUX ALPES | 1300 - 3600 m
The Deux-Alpes resort features not only a large skiable area with numerous good-quality ski lifts, but also a glacier, which means it can stay open in summer. While the skiing level on the glacier is aimed at the practicing beginner, at 3600 m high, the view is worth the trip up. Every year, the Deux-Alpes participates in the world of new snow and ice sports.
 
The 20-hectare snowpark is kept up daily, and the snow-sport events are must-see shows (world ski and snowboard championships). What's more, the off-piste skiing area offers a variety of possibilities to visitors, especially now that it offers access to La Grave: the new feature of this season. Although visitors may not appreciate the architecture, they're sure to enjoy the lively resort ambience, day and night. Les Deux Alpes ski resort special negotiated prices
