Were you looking forward to winter to try some powder snow? Can't live without your annual dose of lifts? So get ready:the ski season is starting very soon!
And with it, the best hotels are available to you, like the very popular hotels in Alpe d'Huez , in one of the most famous resorts. Follow the guide to organize your stay in the snow there!
"Winter has arrived"... and that's good! It's time to get ready to go skiing for the next holidays:in France, the season officially starts in December, between the beginning and the end of the month - even if some resorts, rich in snow, like Val Thorens , Val d'Isere or Chamonix , open their doors at the end of November.
Know for example that the season will begin :
You will find all the opening dates of the ski resorts on this page.
You will therefore be able to ski from the beginning of December , even before the start of the school holidays. Many resorts are indeed taking advantage of this period to get in shape and launch the ski season under the best possible conditions.
They are generally helped by quality snow cover from the end of November/beginning of December , which allows them to welcome the public early.
However, faced with the profusion of possibilities, the question arises:which ski resort should you choose for your next getaway?
However, for the 2017/2018 season, the advantage will undoubtedly go to Alpe d'Huez . Integrated into the Grandes Rousses massif, this Isère resort is part of one of the largest ski areas in the world:that of Alpe d'Huez Grand Domaine Ski .
On site, 250 km of slopes await you , with a drop of more than 2,200 meters; and some 80 ski lifts of all kinds. For the more daring, the playground is not limited to the 135 marked trails:Roche Melon, Sarenne or the Combe du Loup are some of the cross roads that will make you fill up with adrenaline (the off-piste is however reserved to excellent skiers).
So, ready to face the summits? All you have to do is find suitable accommodation to accommodate your small family of skiers (beginners or experienced skiers). Why not let yourself be tempted by a hotel in Alpe d'Huez?
But beware:a successful ski holiday is not only prepared by practicing stick planting! In particular, it is recommended to book a hotel in advance at the foot of the slopes , in order to guarantee a warm and cozy nest throughout your holiday period.
For that, nothing better than to opt for the charm of a family establishment like this Les Bergers hotel in Alpe d’Huez. With its 200 rooms, its friendliness and its ideal location at the foot of the ski area's slopes, this majestic hotel has every chance of becoming an essential stopover on the way to your skiing holiday.
