Les 2 Aples
Les 2 Alpes is a ski resort in the French department of Isère,
Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. The village sits at 1,650 m and lifts run to
3,600 m. It has the largest skiable glacier in Europe and is France's
second-oldest ski resort behind Chamonix. Alpe de Mont de Lans
and Alpe de Venosc were once simple alpine hamlets exploited by
the inhabitants of the 2 villages, during the summer weeks. After
the Second World War, the two communes joined forces to create
a winter sports resort, hence the name Les 2 Alpes.
Les 2 Alpes, international ski resort – 1,650m.
Also provides a range of skiing slopes for all levels and activities
like skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, and even paragliding on
the boards. The resort itself is “only” 1,650m above sea level, but it
takes just two lifts to experience glacier skiing at an elevation of
3,400m, and a further two lifts get you to the highest pistes in
France at the Dôme de la Lauze at 3,568m. It owes its international
reputation to its high-altitude area, the largest glacier ski area
in Europe. Renowned for its arts and crafts and its architecture,
