Located at the heart of the Oisans, it enjoys an exceptional setting where majestic peaks, panoramic trails, mountain lakes and authentic villages all come together.

Whether you're here for a few days or a full week, there's plenty to do: hiking, mountain biking, swimming, summer luge, paragliding, or simply strolling through the Alpine scenery. Families enjoy activities accessible to everyone, while sports enthusiasts find an exceptional playground renowned across Europe.

Far from the summer heat of the lowlands, Les 2 Alpes offers a pleasant climate, cool nights and a quality of life that's especially appreciated during the summer season. Every day reveals a new side of the mountains, between adventure, contemplation and good company.

When the snow gives way to alpine pastures, the resort reveals an immense playground for discovery, where outdoor lovers quickly find what they're looking for.

The hiking trails let you explore varied landscapes, from forests and waterfalls to high-altitude lakes and open views over the peaks of the Oisans. For the more sporty, the Les 2 Alpes Bike Park is among Europe's top references, with many kilometres of trails suited to beginners and experienced riders alike. The lifts make it easy to access numerous routes and quickly enjoy the altitude and exceptional viewpoints.

Whether you're after a family stroll, a sporty outing, or simply the pleasure of being at the heart of unspoilt nature, everyone can experience the mountains at their own pace and build a tailor-made programme.

A holiday the whole family will love

One of the great strengths of Les 2 Alpes is its ability to offer activities suited to all ages. Families particularly appreciate how easy it is to switch between leisure, relaxation and discovery in a safe environment.

Lake Buissonnière, for example, is one of holidaymakers' favourite spots during the summer season. Its landscaped beach, supervised swimming area and relaxation spaces let children and adults alike make the most of sunny days. On top of that, there's plenty of entertainment, discovery trails, the summer luge, nature activities and play areas dotted around the resort.

Parents also benefit from simple, practical organisation: many activities are within walking distance of the resort centre, and the facilities have been designed to welcome families in the best possible conditions. Les 2 Alpes thus offers a rare balance of adventure, safety and friendliness.

A unique mountain experience in summer

Spending summer in Les 2 Alpes isn't just about mountain activities. It's also about enjoying a genuine Alpine way of life, shaped by nature, scenery and shared moments. Here, days often begin in the cool morning mountain air and continue at the pace of hikes, discoveries and scenic breaks.

As the hours pass, the light transforms the landscape and reveals the full beauty of the surrounding peaks, sometimes still capped with snow. After an active day, the terraces gradually fill up, families gather to share their memories, and visitors enjoy the long summer evenings facing the mountains. The resort's restaurants offer everything from Savoyard specialities to friendly spots suited to every taste.

This combination of nature, outdoor activities, cool mountain air and a warm atmosphere is one of the main reasons why so many holidaymakers return to Les 2 Alpes year after year. Far more than just a resort, it becomes a destination where you take the time to make the most of every day.
