Skiing in Alpe d'Huez

Big slopes, big energy – welcome to Alpe d’Huez!

Perched at 1,860 metres, Alpe d’Huez is one of France’s top winter sports resorts – and it’s easy to see why. Once a quiet mountain village for the elite, it’s now a buzzing hotspot with something for everyone, both on and off the slopes. With lifts right around the village, the entire Alpe d’Huez ski area is at your feet – making it a dream for skiers and snowboarders of all levels. Wander through the well-organised and lively town centre, where you’ll find stylish apartments, cosy cafés, local shops, and plenty of places to tuck into a hearty mountain meal. There’s always something going on – boredom doesn’t stand a chance here! Done skiing? The fun’s far from over. Whether it’s a relaxing dinner, a visit to the Palais des Sports (free with your ski pass!), or dancing till late, Alpe d’Huez delivers. And for true party lovers, the legendary Moosebar is the place to be. Great tunes, good vibes, and unforgettable après-ski moments – but arrive early, it fills up fast!
