Les 2 Alpes has become infamous for its quality as a ski and snowboard resort. Amateurs and professionals alike flock to the mile-high resort to enjoy the extensive, mostly treeless ski terrain, efficient lifts and lots of sun on south-facing slopes. They ski on 220 km of groomed slopes, 20 percent of them black, and 44 percent intermediate and 36 percent easy..
A top skiable elevation of 3600 meters and a vertical drop of 2300 meters are impressive statistics rarely found in a ski area. Snowboarders have a real chance to strut their stuff. In addition to wide-open spaces, shredders have a boarder cross, fun park, and halfpipe. Stout-hearted skiers have a mile-long couloir to jump into.
The Mont-de-Lans glacier, near the top of the main mountain, is claimed by the tourist office to be the largest skiable glacier in Europe.
