What time do the Les 2 Alpes lifts open and close?

Imprint
Updated

In winter the ski lifts operate from between 8am and 9am and close about 4pm due to daylight hours. The exact times vary according to time of year and weather conditions, but daily updates can be found at the lift stations. Note that each lift may have a different closing time! Make sure you know what time the last lift stops so that you do not end up stranded on the mountain at the end of the day. In summer the lifts generally open around 9am and close around 6pm, again they will vary according to weather and hours of sunlight. You might also find that some lifts close for lunch! You can check which lifts are open right now with our Live Lift Status in Les 2 Alpes.
