When it is not covered in a thick white blanket, Alpe d’Huez offers those who venture there an infinite number of activities. 

This summer, gain altitude and discover a suspended continent where everyone lives at their own pace without having to choose between activities and relaxation, contemplation and action, culture and nature, swimming and walks….

A historic land for downhill mountain biking, the essence of which can be found in the thirty or so kilometers of the legendary trail of the Megavalanche, from the glacier’s snows to the narrow passages above the streams, theAlpe d’Huez is a must-see destination.

With its thirty-six marked routes and 260km of trails dedicated to mountain biking, Alpe d’Huez finds itself at the heart of one of the largest mountain biking areas in France, an immense playground that extends over more than 2600 meters of elevation gain, from the summit of Pic Blanc at 3330 meters altitude to the confines of the Bourg d’Oisans valley.
