Chalet Ecureuil

Famously known as 'L'Ile au Soleil' (The Island in the Sun), Alpe d'Huez sits on a fully south-facing plateau at 1,860m. This sunny disposition blesses the resort with an average of 300 days of sunshine a year, making it a spectacular destination for fair-weather skiers and terrace-loungers alike, all while offering breathtaking panoramic views across the Southern Alps and the Écrins National Park. The resort is the central hub of the massive Alpe d'Huez Grand Domaine, connecting 250km of diverse pistes across neighboring villages like Auris, Oz-en-Oisans, and Vaujany. Its brilliant layout naturally separates skiers by ability: beginners enjoy a massive network of wide, gentle green runs directly above the village, intermediates have an abundance of rolling blues and reds, and experts can ascend to the Pic Blanc glacier to tackle infamous challenges like the 16km-long La Sarenne or the notoriously steep Le Tunnel. Off the slopes, Alpe d'Huez is a vibrant, modern resort buzzing with energy. It offers incredible après-ski, most notably at the famous La Folie Douce, alongside a huge variety of dining options, bars, and non-skiing activities. From an outdoor ice rink and a massive indoor sports center to ice driving and alpine coasters, it provides a complete winter holiday experience for all ages.

A brilliantly designed ski area that naturally separates abilities, featuring a massive beginner zone right at the village base. Higher up, intermediates cruise endless sunny reds, while experts take on the formidable Pic Blanc glacier and its legendary, leg-burning black descents.

Located in the central French Alps, the Oisans region is characterized by dramatic peaks, deep valleys, and world-class expansive ski domains.
