Step inside the heart of Les Deux Alpes’ newest lift and discover the engineering behind the Jandri three-S. Every Tuesday from late December, with extra sessions during the February holidays, you can join a guided visit to the intermediate station at two-thousand-six-hundred metres.

Led by a member of the Sata Deux Alpes team, this one-hour tour reveals the architecture, machinery and innovation that power the resort’s most advanced lift. The intermediate station is actually two stations in one, home to vast machinery, a soaring garage and modern relaxation areas.

Faster, smoother and designed for the future, the new Jandri three-S transforms the journey to three-thousand-two-hundred metres. It’s a rare chance to see what happens behind the scenes. Visits are in French only.
