    Location & Getting There

    Set in the Southern French Alps, Les 2 Alpes sits just 90 minutes from Grenoble Airport. The resort spans two original alpine villages, Mont de Lans and Venosc, connected by the modern resort center. A pedestrian-friendly main street stretches for 2 kilometers, offering lively après-ski, diverse dining options, and comprehensive amenities. The nearby traditional village of Venosc, accessible by gondola, provides a charming contrast with its artisan workshops and authentic mountain character.

    Season Info

    With glacier skiing at 3,600 meters, Les 2 Alpes maintains one of France's longest ski seasons, typically running from early December through late April for winter sports, plus summer glacier skiing in June and July. The high-altitude terrain ensures reliable snow conditions throughout the winter season, while 200 snow cannons supplement natural coverage on lower slopes. Spring brings perfect conditions for both technical skiing and sun-soaked mountain terraces.
