vaujany

Located in a picturesque setting, Alpe d'Huez has now become the most famous stage of the Tour de France. But its ski area is also one of the best in the Alps: sunny runs with high snow security, unlimited deep snow thrills and awesome snow parks. The family-friendly resort of Vaujany, at a height of 1,250 m, is a great introduction to the area. One of the Alps' most modern gondolas brings you up to 2,800 m in only a few minutes. What was once a small mountain village in the middle of untouched nature now successfully combines the traditional and the contemporary. Alpe d'Huez – legendary mountains - not just for the Tour de France!

This resort not only hosts a stage of the annual Tour de France, it was also one of the sites for the 1968 Winter Olympics in Grenoble. Alpe d'Huez lies at an altitude of 1,860 m, below the Grand Rousses-Massivs, and offers not only a spellbinding panorama, but also the perfect connection to the ski area. Shopping centres with cafes, bars and countless small shops invite you to explore them. The mountain village Vaujany, on the other side of the Petites Rousses ridge, does things a little differently: modern escalators connect the various levels, and the large spa and adventure pool with its exciting slide is surely unique in the French Alps.
