•Glacier Skiing •Top après •Lots of activities

Spectacular views of Mont Blanc aren’t the only bonus of the glacier - this ‘upside down’ ski resort is one of the most snow-sure in the Alps, so much so that you can ski here in the summertime. Much loved for its après ski, the town's main strip is bursting with some of the best bars in the mountains.

Grenoble is the closest airport with a transfer time of just under 2 hours, making the resort accessible by road. The resort was first used for skiing as early as 1925 when the first ski tow was built. The “Les Deux Alpes”, as we know it today, was established in 1946. It is commonly assumed that the name is derived from the two mountains on either side of the town when in reality the name stems from the two villages on either side of the settlement: Mont De Lans and Venosc. The resort is compact, and you’...
There are plenty of beginner slopes on the front face with runs like les Vikings and Les Gentianes for those learning to ski. The great thing about Les Deux Alpes is that there are some terrific beginner slopes higher up the mountain so new skiers can experience the benefits of skiing at altitude. The Cretes area at 2100m is the favourite spot for ski schools, with the ski escalator a welcome aid to those learning to ski. The run home at the end of the day used to have a fearsome reputation for being overcrowded...
You don’t have to look far to find good après in Les Deux Alpes. One of the best bars in resort is Pano bar, this slopeside restaurant, based at 2,600m comes alive at happy hour between 3 pm and 5 pm every day with discounted drinks and a DJ set that will vibrate through your whole body. At the bottom of the piste, Umbrella bar is a great place to keep the party going. If you want to take the night further then Smithy’s is the place to go, with great modern music as well as live entertainment on several night...

"the negative part of a good week"

Ann Reid, Ayr
3/ out of 5
We enjoyed the holiday, the resort was fantastic and the snow was superb but the apartments were a slightly different matter... The location of the accommodation is not ideal as you’re quite a bit away from the centre of town – they’re quite high up in comparison to the resort centre. There is a bus service that takes you down in the mornings which for the sake of not having to hump your equipment about makes things easier. The problem is that the bus stops running early in the evening so if you have a meal after skiing, there’s no service at the time you want to come back. You have to climb up several sets of metal steps which is quite a climb - we’re reasonably fit and had to stop to catch our breath - it would be an absolute nightmare with children. On the main we ate out every night so we were ultra fit by time we’d climbed back! We discovered towards the end of the week that there’s ski storage in the resort bit (which you’d end up paying for), but even walking back without ski boots was hard work. Once you did get back, we had a one bedroomed apartment which was pretty basic but fine and adequate for our needs. We were a group of 4 and besides the ones in the bedroom, the other beds were in the living area (the usual sofa beds you had to unfold each evening). The apartments also have a sauna which is chargeable.
