Behind the scenes at Jandri

Discover the engineering behind the resort’s newest lift

Location
Les Deux Alpes

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.
