About Alpe d'Huez
Alpe d'Huez sits on a vast sun-drenched plateau above the Romanche valley, famously reached by the 21 hairpin bends of the Tour de France cycling route. At 1,860m base altitude with skiing up to 3,330m on the Pic Blanc, the resort offers 250km of piste with exceptional sunshine hours — marketing itself as the 'Island in the Sun' — alongside one of the longest black runs in Europe, the 16km Sarenne descent from the Pic Blanc summit.
