Les Deux Alpes has settled into a proper February rhythm this week. The village is busy with half term visitors, but up on the glacier and across the main mountain there is still a sense of space once you spread out. The high altitude terrain is holding its cover well and the north facing slopes above resort are looking solid and wintry. With fresh snow already this week and a more significant system forecast to arrive shortly, conditions are poised to improve further.
Current snow depths are around 95 cm at resort level at 1650 metres, rising to approximately 170 cm on the upper mountain and close to 200 cm on the glacier at 3200 to 3400 metres. Over the past seven days around 10 to 15 cm of new snow has fallen above 1800 metres, giving a welcome refresh to well used pistes and improving grip on steeper sections. Lower slopes back to resort have seen some softer patches during milder afternoons but remain well covered thanks to the maintained base.
Temperatures at resort level have ranged between minus 2 and plus 3 degrees during the day, dropping to around minus 5 overnight. On the glacier, daytime temperatures have stayed colder, typically between minus 10 and minus 6 degrees. The freezing level has fluctuated between 1600 and 2000 metres during brighter spells, lowering again overnight. Winds have been light to moderate, stronger at times on the glacier but without major disruption to lift operations.
Forecast charts are indicating a more substantial snow event from late Friday into the weekend. Current projections suggest 30 to 50 cm of fresh snow above 2000 metres, with 20 to 35 cm likely around resort level if temperatures remain favourable. This expected snow dump should significantly improve surface quality across the whole ski area, particularly on the lower mountain where a top up will be beneficial.
Cloud will increase over the next couple of days as the front approaches, with snowfall intensifying into the weekend and potentially accompanied by stronger winds at altitude. There may be temporary lift closures on the highest sectors if gusts build, but once the system passes colder air is forecast to settle in, helping preserve the new snow. In resort there are regular half term events organised by the tourist office, including family activities, evening entertainment and live music, adding to the lively atmosphere without affecting skiing conditions.
Weather outlook as of: 12 February 2026. As I am sure you are aware, accurately forecasting weather more than two or three days ahead in the mountains is notoriously tricky. If there is a significant change we will update this section before the next full weekly snow report.
The glacier and higher north facing runs currently offer the most consistent snow, with firmer surfaces in the morning and softer turns developing through the afternoon. Lower slopes remain perfectly skiable but will benefit from the forecast snowfall. With a solid base already in place and a notable snow dump on the way, overall conditions in Les Deux Alpes are set to strengthen considerably over the coming days.
