What's new this winter in Les 2 Alpes
From the ski area to what's fresh in the resort
As winter begins to take hold we take a look at all that's new in resort and on the slopes.
Early signs of snowfall here in the Alps are creating much excitement for the upcoming winter season. The ski industry is raring to go and this winter looks like being an exceptionally busy one. Les 2 Alpes ski area opens 29 November 2025 and ski passes are already on sale.
A reminder that you'll need winter tyres on your vehicle from 1 November to 31 March (M&S marking, or all weather (four season) tyres), OR at least two snow chains/socks in the vehicle when driving in the mountain regions in France, following a law introduced from November 2021.

Brand new photo point
A camera will be installed at the Bellecombe chairlift arrival point. A terminal, located near the direction signs, will allow you to retrieve the photo in digital format free of charge.
Beginner areas reach new heights
Previously located at 1,650 m, the beginner slopes are now accessible at 2,100 m and 2,600 m. This evolution ensures ideal conditions for learning to ski or snowboard, whatever the season.
The Jandri Walk: slow skiing at high altitude
Between 2,800 m and 3,200 m, a new blue run follows the Jandri trail, offering a peaceful and scenic descent. Designed for skiers seeking calm and breathtaking views, the Jandri Walk invites you to slow down and enjoy the mountain at your own pace.
