Les 2 Alpes

We were fortunate enough to dab in a sick week when the snow completely wrecked almost every day; one should keep that in mind with this review. I don't think the experience had been as good without it. We were a large group who went and with the trip there were also toddlers. One requirement was to live close to the lift, which can be done both in hotels and by renting houses in private.

Les 2 alps offers a nice system, easy and accessible without too much hassle for family and children. The slopes are fine, great variation in slope and length so there is something for everyone. There are a lot of steeper slopes to choose from. Bonus for the easier off-piste skiing offered in connection with the slopes. It was easy to bother between slopes and lifts in order to be able to utilize all untracked terrain. As it continued to dump while we were there, there were no real reasons for embarking on a more advanced trip.

Despite its size, the village was no more than ok, with relatively much traffic on the curved main street. The village, however, offers a lot of different restaurants and an occasional après-ski pub - it may be all you can ask for from an alpine city anyway.

Very nice place. As with all ski resorts, the weather and other external conditions will be immensely crucial for the experience of a place. We had gotten a very nice house right by the elevator at one edge of the system, so everything was hugely accessible to us. When we went with several toddlers and several families, we prioritized just that kind of accommodation so that it would be easy to change your childcare. The system is very big, but it was easy to navigate. As our external conditions were a bit amazing with two real dumps during the week, we did not spend a lot of time exploring the piste range, but what we went on in the system can be seen that it is mostly about long sweeping slopes. Fairly far from the Swedish system with straight slopes right in the line in a row.

Back to the dumps. We used to be in a system when it dumped but then felt it was quite difficult for an "outbreak" to get good off-piste but the layout in Les2 made it always easy to access and it was relatively easy to get off the lifts how to go. There were also always winding transports that ensured that they got back to the lift from their adventures.

Because we went with little children, the outdoors became somewhat limited, but the village is relatively big and genuine. We are not talking about any tourist complex on a mountain top without a real city. In order for me to get good food and drink I do not doubt a second. However, there was a pretty good store offering for the child-watching part of the gang to engage with.

Can really recommend L2A - here's everything! Good and many slopes, easily accessible offpiste, amazing views and very snow proof. I was there on week 9 2018 and enjoyed this legendary ski resort (second oldest in all of France). Very efficient lift system and a gem that Sweden seems to have missed a little ....

Going to this amazing ski resort every year! Nice atmosphere in the village and good skiing. Good prices.

Week 8 2017, bad with snow at the village, bad with slopes on top. Excellent accommodation and cozy city.
3 adults, 3 children and one adult with a gypsum wrist.
Possibly due to lack of snow, the piste system becomes too small and monotonous. Many and long transport stretches that are sometimes narrow. Two series clocks in one week, feel B. The position of the lifts demanded more strike than usual. Top flat slopes, at the village good slopes if there is snow. In the middle a fun park like the kids 11,12,14 and 15 liked. Mixed grades from the group, but my rating is under funds. I would choose another Alpine peak.

Les 2 Alpes is a cozy ski resort that has slopes of varying difficulty and length.
Les deux Alpes has a snow-proof glacier that has well-prepared slopes. The area is large with a long fall height, but the slopes are divided into lots with many flatter parts.
The backs are always well prepared and it is usually possible to find backs protected from wind.

We were there at the end of March 2017 and were lucky enough to have a good snowfall the day before. It was lucky otherwise there would have been no snow. Les2Alps is a relatively small ski resort and very quiet. We hired an offpist guide one day to get some untouched snow and have a fantastic day. You can also go to La Grave.
Tip, take the lift down to the cozy little village of Venosc if you want to take a break from skiing.

It is possible to take a day trip with the ski bus to Alp D'huez. It includes a day's skiing there with the lift pass. Fun to test a system but when we were there late in the season there was not much snow.

Went with Langley and lived quite close to the piste

Have just done a week in L2A. Unfortunately, there was no way outside the slopes due to lack of snowfall, it was mostly rock and grasslands.

Despite the snow shortage, a brilliant work was done with the slopes, every morning there was well prepared manchester and only a few slopes were shut down due to poor ground. Even late in the afternoon, most of the system was fine. It did not feel like there were a lot of people despite the fact that the queue line queue was long in the morning. If you do not want to queue, take advantage of the little white egg on the mountain instead, a little crowded but no queue to talk about. Once upon a time there were no queues at all.

Very positive is that there are slopes with quite wide variety and even easier slopes at high altitudes where the snowfall is safer so that even those with moderate skills can enjoy the magnificent view. However, it seems to blow more than fresh quite often. There is not much forest so in the worse view you have few options. Fall height is clearly approved.

There is also the possibility to get from the top over to La Grave, if weather permits which of course did not happen during my visit. It still gives a big plus when it comes to a bit more adventurous ride.

The village itself is very nice, good range of shops, cafes and restaurants. It's quite small so the distances are short. There is a cab ride down to the village of Venosc which is worth visiting. There are also a number of other ski resorts on a reasonable distance for those who want to see themselves a little more.

The final score will be very good despite the lack of snow.

Recommend the slopes throughout Les Deux Alpes, where there was last week in Mars when it was a bad winter, but still got a great skiing. Several good slopes that were well-groomed and really long beautiful yesterday. Did not test on the offpiste because I did not even go on all the slopes. No lift queues in principle and definitely not crowded in the slopes. Good après ski drag on the Pano bar in the middle of the hill and the evening life in the village was lovely. The village had no less than 15 Michelin guide restaurants with reasonable prices, and unfortunately he only tested four.

The only negative I can get is that it was a bit rocky at the end of the hill down towards the village, but it is also late in the season. I will definitely be back.

Fantastic nice ski resort that I really recommend! Great off-piste if it's snow lately. Long and short slopes of varying severity. Many nice wide slopes for lovely carvings. There were v. 11 and then there were basically no lift queues. Incredibly good food, both in the village and at the two restaurants in the hill that I tested (of course there are many more I did not try). Really good and scary after skiing at Pano, in the middle of the hill. Also very good at Umbrella Bar down the village, something later in the afternoon.
