Les 2 Alpes, which overtook Tignes to offer the longest season in France a few years ago, has announced its 24-25 season will last more than 7 months and conclude in July, conditions permitting.
Les 2 Alpes has 200km of slopes. With 75% of the ski area above 2,000 metres. The bulk of the ski area will close on May 4th but from 5 to 28 May, the ski area between 3,600m and 2,600m will stay open. Then from 29 May to 6 July, only the glacier, from 3,600m to 3,200m will operate.
"Thanks to the new cable-car, the Jandri, Les 2 Alpes offers access to the high-altitude summits across all seasons. The Jandri, which is the biggest new development in Les 2 Alpes and the most significant project in the French Alps in the last 10 years, allows the resort to adapt to the changing conditions and stay open most of the year. In less than 20 minutes, skiers, pedestrians and mountain bikers can travel from the resort at 1,650 metres to the glacier at 3,200 metres," a resort statement explains.
ESF Les 2 Alpes as well as European Ski Schools will organise ski and snowboard camps until 6 July.
International teams also come at this time to train and from 10 to 18 May, the resort will host the World Rookie Tour. International riders meet in Les 2 Alpes for a week of camps (juniors and under 17s) followed by a weekend of Slopestyle contest on the 2 Alpes snowpark, at 3400 m.
Many hotels and restaurants will also remain open non-stop, including the charming Chamois Lodge (www.chamoislodge.fr), Les Lutins in the centre of the resort (www.les-lutins-2alpes.com) and the trendy hostel The People Hostel (www.thepeoplehostel.com).
