Ski Chalets and Apartments in Alpe d'Huez
Regarded as being one of the top five high-altitude resorts in the French Alps, ski chalets and apartments in Alpe d'Huez are highly sought after by experienced skiers and snowboarders from all over the world, particularly those keen to challenge their skills on the longest black run in Europe as well as enjoy easy access to the Sarenne glacier, which guarantees perfect snow conditions throughout the entire winter season in the Rhone Alps. Ski apartments and chalets in Alpe d'Huez can, however, offer people of all ages and abilities in skiing and snowboarding the opportunity for fun and excitement on over 230kms of slopes and pistes, many being found within minutes of the ski lifts (of which there are 84!) so it won't be necessary to get out of bed for extra-early breakfasts every morning when a day of skiing could begin right at the doorstep of your chalet or apartment.
Isere may be a department whose landscapes are dominated by the rugged contours and snow-capped peaks of the French Alps, but winter isn't the only season with excellent vacation potential when the summer months provide many other opportunities for sport, leisure and recreation throughout this area of the Rhone-Alps. Ski chalets and apartments in Alpe d'Huez double-up perfectly as a base from where an agenda of hiking, climbing and mountain biking can be planned once the snow has disappeared from all but the high-altitude slopes and glaciers, and while the neighbouring resort of Les Deux Alpes is home to Europe's largest glacier, you'll actually be in the ideal situation to enjoy some skiing at virtually any time of the year. So pack salopettes, gloves and goggles along with your shorts, t-shirts and walking boots when you head for an apartment in Alpe d'Huez and you could be in for the most action and adventure possible outside the skiing season!
