Visit the Ice Cave and the Écrins Belvedere
At 3,200 m above sea level, another dimension opens up. Upon arriving at the top of the Jandri lift, step onto the moving walkway to admire breathtaking views of Mont Blanc on a clear day. It’s simply spectacular.
Then take the funicular for a journey beneath the ice, reaching 3,400 m, the highest altitude accessible to pedestrians. The Les 2 Alpes ice cave, carved each year into the glacier by two high-mountain guides, reveals a world sculpted entirely from ice. Translucent galleries, ephemeral ice sculptures, and an almost unreal bluish light create a magical atmosphere.
Just a few steps away in the snow, the Écrins Belvedere offers a 360° panoramic view over legendary peaks, including the iconic Barre des Écrins.
This experience is ideal for:
- A unique winter family activity
- A contemplative break during your ski holiday
- Enhancing your mountain stay without putting on skis
- A suspended moment between ice art and high alpine scenery
Access to 3,200 m is recommended from age 3.
Price: €6.50 per adult (in addition to the glacier pedestrian lift pass)
Night Skiing: The Mountain Under the Stars
When the slopes light up and the sky turns deep and velvety, night skiing in Les 2 Alpes reveals a truly unique atmosphere. Gliding under the floodlights, in a more intimate setting, transforms every descent. Fewer people, stronger sensations. The snow feels different under your skis, the cold gently tingles your cheeks, and the resort lights sparkle below.
Night skiing is the perfect extension of your day on the slopes, an original winter activity and a chance to share a friendly moment after exploring the ski area.
An experience to enjoy at least once during your winter holiday. It’s open to everyone and included in your lift pass.
