Les Deux Alpes Ski Passes
Les Deux Alpes is a high-altitude powerhouse.
Because it’s home to one of Europe’s largest skiable glaciers, snow reliability is practically a given. The ski area offers approximately 136.7 miles of pisted runs, served by a modern network of 55 lifts. The vertical drop is staggering - you can ski from the top of the glacier all the way down to the village of Mont de Lans, a descent of 2,300m without ever having to stop.
The resort is split into two primary sectors. On one side, you have the Vallée Blanche, which is smaller, southwest-facing, and offers some lovely red and blue runs that get the morning sun. On the other side is the ‘Big Ski Area’, which encompasses the glacier's massive heights and the technical slopes of the Toura and Diable sectors.
Types of ski passes in Les Deux Alpes
The passes are generally divided by duration (from 4 hours to a full season), age (Child, Junior, Adult, Senior, and the Grand Senior for those over 72), and perks. For most visitors staying for a week, the 6-day Grand Domaine pass is the standard choice.
However, there are also Liberty options for those who want to pay as they go, and the highly coveted Grande Galaxie benefits that allow you to visit other world-class resorts nearby. Knowing which one to pick can save you a fair bit of money - especially if you're travelling in a group or as a family.
FAQs
What’s the easiest way to book my Les Deux Alpes ski pass?
When you book through Erna Low, select the Ski Passes option in additional extras, add it to your booking and… that’s it! Booking your Les Deux Alpes ski pass really couldn’t be easier.
What happens if I lose my pass in Les Deux Alpes?
Don't panic! Whether you bought your pass online or kept your receipt, the ticket office can usually block the old card and issue a replacement for a small administrative fee (around €10-€15). It’s a good idea to take a photo of the back of your pass as soon as you get to Les Deux Alpes.
Does the Les Deux Alpes pass include insurance?
Standard passes do not include mountain rescue insurance. You'll be offered Assur’Glisse (around €3.50 per day) when you buy your ticket, whether online or in resort in Les Deux Alpes. It's highly recommended unless you are 100% sure your travel insurance covers on-piste rescue and transport, as a helicopter ride off the glacier is not cheap!
