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.

Lift queues were big as in all French resorts, but seemed to be pretty quick due to recent investment in this area

Great slopes although not a HUGE area. Was good for my level. You can ski most of it in a day and probably all of it in 2 days

Great all rounder resort. Plenty of accommodation near the lifts, brilliant Apres with Pano and Umbrella Bar and easily accessible from Grenoble Airport. The resort feels welcoming and doesn’t have the arrogant ‘scenery’ feel of some of the other French resorts. Plenty of run options for all levels.

One of the cheaper options in France but really good value for money. Plenty of snow and a great range of runs for all abilities. Some great options for food and drink in the town. Would recommend Crepes a Gogo for food.

Really nice ski resort town with plenty of options to eat and drink in town. It is a bit smaller than the advertised piste Kms, but there are plenty of runs to cover for a weeks skiing. There are also some pretty good off piste sections, for example, under the Pierre Grosse gondola

I went for a week in Deux Alpes with my brother, nephew, girlfriend and 2 friends. We hired a self catering apartment very close to the bottom of one of the lifts, which was clean, spacious (enough) and featured a hot tub which was a nice luxury for after a day on the slopes.
The conditions for the first half of the week we ok - the pistes were well maintained and there wasn’t too much afternoon slushiness.
However unfortunately during the second half of the week the weather closed in and there were big snow dumps, which would have been great were it not for the very high winds which meant that all the lifts were shut for safety reasons. Fortunately we weee able to get refunds for lift passes on the days the lifts were shut and there are enough bars in the town to entertain you for a couple of days.

I loved Les Deux Alpes I improved my skiing a lot during my trip there, there are a lot of varied runs and the blues were my favourite. We stayed in an airbnb next to the belle etoille lift this is a great location for ski in/ski out and if you are focussing on skiing bc of how close wee were to lift pass office, main lifts and obviously ski in/ski out. We were only a 10 min walk into the main but of town with the bars and clubs. At the start we spent most of our time on Vallee Blanche, it has my favourite green run I've ever done, there rest of the week we mainly spent going up the diable lift the furthest up the mountain we could get because it snowed before we came and not at all during our stay so conditions were icy. The worst 2 runs I'd say are from the top of Belle Etoille to get back down into Les Deux Alpes town. Theres a blue and a green run. The green run is thin and windy and feels exposed, probably my least favourite run ever even though its only a green. The other is a blue its wider but still feels exposed, because the green is so horrible lots of beginners take it down and its very busy at the end of the night, additionally apres is up there and these 2 runs are the only way into les deux alpes town. It also got iceier as the week went on making it all the more challenging I was knocked over by people falling 3 times. So I reccommend at the end of the night taking the Belle Etoille lift down if its icy and there its busy. Views were stunning from every part of each mountain, weather was gorgeous when I was there too making it all the more magical. We didn't go to apres and more focussed on skiing. We mostly cooked our own food to save money but I wish we discovered this burger place Umami earlier in the week. I woul've ate there every night, literally the best burger I've ever had really tasty and everything is homemade, such a welcoming vibe in the restaurant and great value for money. I enjoyed all of my time in Les Deux Alpes and will definetly go back.

We stayed right by the main lift and it was an excellent location but the runs down to the village are very icy and over populated. The wider resort was good. Found some decent places on our last day. Nice little places to stop if you look hard enough. The main stops are pretty lively which was great but food was average. I'd go back to the resort but it wouldn't be my top choice.

Great ski resort with good value for money, large area and never had to queue for lifts, not too busy even in peak season. Only thing that could be improved is some tree runs

Honestly one of my best experiences as a skier! We love the French Alps in general but I cannot wait to return to Les 2 Alps! Very organised set up for the village and ski in and out resorts. Very efficient handling of queues by staff! Beautiful established pistes, and bars. Love the apres ski as well!

Me and my friends had an incredible week in L2A. Our group was a mixture of skiers and snowboarders of varied abilities and the ski area was great and catered to everyone. The apres and nightlife was amazing too.
