Beginners’ runs

You’ll be able to discover the entire ski area thanks to its many blue runs, in particular the Jandri blue run, which starts at 3,200 metres and goes down to the resort at 1,650 metres.
It’s useful to know that in Les 2 Alpes, the higher you go [where the snow is usually better, fresher and less compacted], the easier the runs!
In the lower part of the resort, there are 5 FREE beginners’ runs: get your fill!
