Les Deux Alpes, France
Choose the second-highest ski resort in Europe for your next school ski trip. Set beneath 4,000 metre peaks, this resort will be sure to impress your students! The high-altitude resort of Les Deux Alpes is home to the Mont de Lans Glacier, Europe’s largest skiable glacier at over 3200m, making this a guaranteed snow sure resort for your school ski trip.
Unlike in most resorts, where the skiing gets tougher the higher you go, some of the easiest runs here are actually at the top of the mountain, on the Glacier du Mont de Lans. Beginners and intermediates can head up there to enjoy wide, gentle blues.
School groups have the option of flying into Grenoble (2-hour transfer from airport) or Lyon (3-hour transfer from airport) or the resort is easily reachable by coach (12 hours from Calais).
Resort facts
Great snow is guaranteed thanks to this resort’s high altitude. Offering world-class skiing, this resort is not only the second highest in Europe but also boasts a great reputation for having everything you need in one place.
This includes a range of après-ski activities, skiing suitable for all abilities, excellent facilities for snowboarders and a good selection of restaurants and accommodation.
