5 great reasons to spend your family winter holiday in Les 2 Alpes

What if your family holiday reached new heights this winter? In Les 2 Alpes, days are spent with skis on your feet, rosy cheeks from the fresh mountain air and eyes fixed on the snow-covered peaks. From skiing and outdoor activities to snowy adventures and cosy moments together, the whole family can enjoy being active and creating unforgettable memories.

Here are five great reasons to choose Les 2 Alpes for your next family winter holiday.

In Les 2 Alpes, skiing is at the heart of every winter holiday. Rising to 3,600 metres above sea level, the ski area is divided into several sectors, allowing every member of the family to find slopes suited to their ability.

While children discover the excitement of their first turns, more experienced skiers can explore challenging slopes, link together long descents and enjoy panoramic views over the peaks of the Oisans.

Beginners, confident young skiers and parents looking for more technical runs can all enjoy the same ski area at their own pace. Ski schools, snow gardens and specially designed beginner areas, including easy-access and free slopes, help children learn to ski from an early age.

Thanks to its high-altitude location, the Les 2 Alpes ski area offers reliable snow conditions throughout the winter season, giving families every opportunity to enjoy snowy slopes during their stay.

In Les 2 Alpes, progress may sometimes be measured in ski-school stars, but it is mostly measured in smiles at the bottom of the slopes.

A winter holiday in the mountains is about much more than the number of kilometres skied. It begins in the silence of a freshly snow-covered landscape, continues with a family snowball fight and ends as the resort lights begin to glow beneath the mountains.

A toboggan ride on a dedicated and secure sledging area, a walk through the snow, a family snowshoe outing or building a snowman can turn an ordinary day into a memorable family experience.

Families can also reach the high-altitude areas without putting on skis. Pedestrian lift access makes it possible to admire the snow-covered peaks and discover iconic attractions such as the Belvédère des Écrins or the ice cave located at 3,400 metres above sea level.

It is another way to experience winter in Les 2 Alpes, with a little less speed but just as much wonder. A family winter holiday in the mountains is also an opportunity to slow down, admire the scenery and enjoy a complete change of surroundings.

In an active family, the skis may rest for a few hours. The legs, perhaps a little less.

Les 2 Alpes offers a wide range of activities for exploring the mountain beyond the ski slopes, including snowshoeing, ski touring, sledging, ice skating, snow trail running and paragliding.

Families can choose activities according to their interests, their energy levels and the weather conditions during their stay. Children and adults can try new experiences, take on new challenges and create a winter holiday where no two days feel the same.

A morning on the slopes can be followed by a snowy walk, an ice-skating session or an exciting toboggan run. Families looking for a quieter pace can also enjoy wellness facilities, relaxing breaks, warm drinks on a terrace or peaceful moments admiring the mountain scenery.

It is the perfect programme for returning to your accommodation with tired legs and your mind full of mountain adventures.

Life follows a different rhythm in the mountains. Families meet on the ski lifts, wait for one another at the edge of the slopes, share stories over hot chocolate and compare the tracks they have left in the snow.

A family ski holiday in Les 2 Alpes offers a welcome break from everyday life, giving everyone the chance to disconnect from their routine and reconnect with one another.

Les 2 Alpes has been awarded the Famille Plus label and offers services, entertainment and activities designed to welcome families and make organising their stay easier.

Children build confidence on the slopes, parents rediscover the pleasure of skiing and the whole family creates a collection of shared memories: a first red run, an unforgettable toboggan ride or a burst of laughter after a harmless fall into the powder.

During the school holidays, family entertainment adds an extra touch of magic to the resort. Firework displays, ski shows and street performances along the main avenue bring the resort to life. Children’s eyes light up, while parents can enjoy sharing a truly enchanting moment together.

These small moments often become the greatest stories of the holiday.

After a full day outdoors, returning to a warm and comfortable property is an essential part of the winter holiday experience. Helmets are put away, gloves are left to dry and the family gathers around the table to share the best moments of the day.

Whether you choose a practical apartment, a spacious chalet, accommodation close to the ski lifts or a ski-in ski-out property in Les 2 Alpes, families can find a place to stay that suits their size, organisation and holiday style.

Well-located accommodation reduces travel time, makes it easier to reach the slopes and helps families make the most of every day. For active families, saving a few minutes in the morning can quickly mean fitting in one more ski run before the lifts close.
