What Skiers Say About Alpe d'Huez

Alpe d'Huez attracts a broad range of skiers from beginners to experts, with users frequently noting the extensive green and blue runs that make it particularly suitable for learners and families. The resort's high altitude and sunny aspect are regularly mentioned, though this can lead to variable snow conditions lower down and slushy afternoons in spring. Multiple reviewers highlight the long runs, especially the Sarenne black, and the efficient lift system connecting to satellite villages like Vaujany and Oz. Après-ski receives mixed feedback, with Folie Douce praised but some users noting limited options and early closing times. Food quality both on-mountain and in town is consistently well-regarded, though prices are noted as typical for a French resort.

Alpe dhuez never disappoints. Excellent range of piste and terrain. Love the longest black run, the Sarenne. Beautiful resort and lots of great apres and places to eat.

Varied ski area with good greens for learning and some nice blacks higher up. Tunnel run and Sarenne very good, but Sarenne is 8km long, not 16km - how do they get away with that lie for so long?
Nice town with good bars and restaurants.

my first time skiing and alp d’huez certainly didn’t disappoint. Incredible scenery, lots of green runs perfect for learning on, the ski school ESF were great and helped me maintain control even on busy slopes. So many good spots to stop for lunch on the slopes. Only downside was the cable car to the peak Pic Blanc 3300 wasn’t open during our visit.

Get to the lifts early, ski in the morning followed by a late lunch in the afternoon. You can then do Apres ski with spa facilities in the afternoon followed by an early dinner. The perfect ski holiday!

I loved the resort and found lots of good runs which were fun and relaxing to go for repeated runs. The aprés ski was also enjoyable with lots of options. Can get busy in peak season but everything moves well on the lifts.

Good resort. They hadn’t had snow for a while when I visit so a lot of slopes were closed/limited off piste. That being said, the result still didn’t feel too small or restricted. The amenities and restaurants are good too.

I attended the resort as a first time skier. I’d had 2 ski lessons in the UK but had never skied in the mountains before. The resort is great for beginners, offering multiple green runs that were easy but also challenging in areas to allow for progression and improvement in skiing.

We have visited Alpe DHuez three times and it is one of our favourite resorts.
The ski area is brilliant for a mix of abilities so ideal for family trips,
Plenty of quieter areas to explore if you’re visiting in the busy periods
