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.

However, I found this resort to be somewhat problematic. The whole town is on one long road and you have to walk really far to get from one location to the next unless you manage to get public transport.
There are lots of places to stay and the overall town is full of restaurants and bars and theres even a great restaurant/bar up on the mountain so you can enjoy a drink with the most breathtaking views!
If youre looking for a party in the nights or even days and skiing/snowboarding down some incredible terrain then Les 2 Alpes wont disappoint.
We will be returning to Les 2 Alpes.
Great for skiing for a much longer season as the mountain has a glacier under the snow to keep cool up until June. I visited in April last year and the snow was perfect so good that I am going again in April 2025. Less people on the slope but still great snow.
It is easy to find your way around. There are plenty of opportunities for challenging runs. Some of the best mountain restaurants can be quite full and booking is recommended. The Valley Blanche side is worth a half-day - including lunch!
I am 72 and looking forward to my first ever FREE lift pass!
We had great conditions above 2100m below was slushy come late morning and 15 degrees at the base in January. Strange conditions.
The 2km vertical run top to bottom is amazing but the piles of people in the slush near the base when youve had a couple too many at lunch is far from fun.
I imagine its a great place when its snowy in the village and if you speak fluent French. When the snow thaws its nothing special. Austria and Canada from now for us.
