Snowpark: La Toura sector, Les 2 Alpes

LES 2 ALPES SKI AREA

On the Slopes
Les 2 Alpes’ ski area is mostly characterised by long well-groomed cruising pistes, mostly well above the tree line and flowing along a backbone of glacial ridges.
Local Sectors
Despite the narrow configuration of the ski area, the domain is big enough to house a respectably wide range of terrain: all the way from sheltered birch woods to glacial summits, and ranging from easily accessible beginners’ slopes to seriously exposed off-piste itineraries.

Pied Moutet  This was the first sector to be developed, yet it now feels remote from the core ski area; a positive attraction when you want to escape the crowds.

Crêtes/Diable  Covering the ridges above the main town slopes and housing the almost exclusively black-graded home runs, these two intertwined sectors are accessible to all abilities and house some good excursions for beginners too.

Toura/La Fée  These sectors have a wilder edge: Toura features Les Deux Alpes’ excellent snowpark and has a buzzing atmosphere; La Fée is at the quieter margins of the domain and is filled with secret stashes of freeride joy.

Glacier  The highest and most exposed of the sectors but, paradoxically, the dome-shaped summits allow beginners and intermediates to go as high as any advanced ability visitors can. As well as offering guaranteed snow and hosting the station’s enjoyable Slide Zones, this sector also links into La Grave and opens up a myriad of off-piste routes.
