Why come to Les 2 Alpes this winter ? Lots of people have stopped even asking themselves that question and have adopted the French resort for good, but for anyone yet to be converted, here are seven good reasons.
1) Live an amazing experience at 3,600m above sea
You may not know it, but Les 2 Alpes has the largest skiable glacier in Europe, culminating at an altitude of 3,600m. Whether there’s good snowfall in winter or not, there’s always skiing in Les 2 Alpes! As proof, you can also ski here in the summer, and professional skiers come from all over the world to do just that! Winter also provides the opportunity to ski non-stop from 3,600m to 1,300m, to the village of Mont de Lans: a world-class vertical drop of 2,300m and 16km of runs over the region’s highest summits.
2) Freestyle Land, a top snowpark!
Les 2 Alpes’ snowpark is legendary. Going beyond the scope of a simple snowpark, Les 2 Alpes has built Freestyle Land. This is a whole sector of slopes (mainly in La Toura sector) dedicated to freestyle, arranged by ability level and discipline.
3) If you’re looking for sun and winter snow, Les 2 Alpes is the right resort!
If you’re looking for winter sun, Les 2 Alpes is undoubtedly the place where you’ll find the most! Check out the resort’s sunshine levels on the Météo France weather report! In winter, the resort has more sunshine than Marseille or Perpignan (but beware, not the same temperatures!).
4) For mad afternoons at the Pano Bar!
Do you love partying and never want a night out to end? In Les 2 Alpes, you can start the party on the slopes from 3pm until the runs close. The Pano Bar awaits you at an altitude of 2,600m, at the top of the Jandri ski lift: let the music take you over; the DJs are pumping up the volume!
5) Because you can ski on blue runs from the top of the ski area to your accommodation
This winter, a new blue run will make the journey back down to the resort much easier. Now you will be able to ski on blue runs from 3,400m to 1,650m.
6) In Les 2 Alpes, you don’t need a car!
The resort of Les 2 Alpes is ideal for pedestrians. Once you arrive, you can park your car and not use it again until you leave. Built on a 2km-long plateau (therefore flat), ski lift departure stations are dotted roughly every 200m along at the bottom of the slopes. That means there’s always a ski lift nearby! There are also free shuttlebuses running throughout the whole resort.
7) Because there’s more than just skiing in Les 2 Alpes!
