What Skiers Say About Les 2 Alpes

Les 2 Alpes attracts a mixed crowd of beginners through to advanced skiers and snowboarders, with families and groups of friends in their twenties being common. The high altitude consistently delivers good snow conditions, and the lift system—particularly the new Jandri lift—receives widespread praise for minimal queuing. Reviewers frequently mention the lively après-ski scene at Pano Bar and Umbrella Bar, though opinions on the skiing area size vary, with some feeling the advertised piste kilometres overstate the actual terrain. The lower slopes, particularly the narrow runs back to the village at the end of the day, are repeatedly criticised for being icy, overcrowded, and challenging. Most visitors appreciate the range of restaurants and bars in the town, though some note limited and expensive on-mountain dining options.

I went to Les 2 Alps with a group of friends as part of a festival. This meant we were there earlier than the usual ski season would start.

Im a novice skier, and although they opened half the resort up, this only included one green run for me to try. It became icy super by day 3 and I was hoping theyd open up the other side of the resort which had tree runs and green runs - unfortunately apparently this event was too early in the season.

I really enjoyed trying to learn but I think I would have chosen a different resort as a beginner if Id known this would be the case.

L2A is a charming, medium-sized resort and ski area.

The recently replaced gondola system speeds you to the top of the glacier, with over 1500m of vertical climb. From there, there's a lot to explore, including some challenging near-piste descents.

For beginners, intermediates, families, and recreational skiers, there's more than enough to keep you busy all week.

In the resort and up the mountain, the quality and variety of dining available is fantastic, from the best pizza I've ever had, despite being served from a hole in the wall, to Michelin recognised restaurants.

Not too far from Lyon and Geneva, not too expensive, a glacier: all in all you'll probably have a lovely week.

Went for Christmas, surprisingly few queues for the lifts, many of the lifts are fast and fairly new, obviously there is the Brand new Jandri that takes you almost to the top of the resort. Easy to navigate way around, cant really get lost as everything ends up in the main town and everything is well connected. Not much in the way of tree lined runs, and a few of the greens and blues are quite narrow and get very busy towards the end of the day with beginners which make them difficult to ski properly. Runs generally well groomed. Would I go back? Not sure I would, if you want wide cruisey blues and reds this is not the place to go, better off in Les Arcs or La Plagne or even round the corner in Alpe dHuez.

Smithys Tavern is THE PLACE TO BE on nights out - constant events and right by The Avalanche club it truly is one of a kind, not to mention the food upstairs and incredible staff. Hit the umbrella bar for the vibe straight off the slopes - The Spot does the best burgers in France - The Polar Bear has the best atmosphere - The Red Frog always has the game on.

We had such a good time here, our accommodation was just outside the resort but the local bus was right outside our hotel and took us straight to the resort. We took sandwiches which we could make from the hotel out with us for a few snacks.
DJs in the bars at the top of the hills were amazing. Such good vibes.
Definitely worth a visit.

This is a great resort to visit if you're not too keen on long coach journeys up the side of mountains. It was a very quick transfer with a nice journey up. Nice relaxed snowboarding. I particularly liked the bowling alley in the evening.

It's honestly such an amazing resort.
Firstly the accomodation is great and food is amazing. There's a bakery near every hotel and the one I went to was open from six in the morning so easy before skiing.
Skiing is rlly good however there's minimal tree runs as it's a glacier resort.

Was my first time skiing ever and went with my boyfriend. Had a great time learning at this resort and he still had a brilliant time doing the harder runs he liked.
We had such nice dinners and found some lovely places for a drink after.
This place has definitely given me the ski fever and I would love to go skiing again here any day.

Tree runs! Nuff said.

No, seriously. For me this is the king resort for tree runs. It will always hold a special place in my heart for that special feeling you get cruising through trees.

Mostly Blue runs, not very beginner friendly as most of the greens are near the bottom but can be icy at times. Best to take the quiet blue runs as a beginner. Can be quite busy and a small resort but is cheap.

An excellent resort for skiers and boarders looking for a good mix of being on the slopes and apres.
Not a huge number of runs but a good difficulty range within the runs there, and an excellent glacier section.
Well equipped and large snow parks with enough space.

Great resort that would suit groups of friends or younger winter sports enthusiasts.
