Altitude 3300

From 2025 to 2027, the Alpe d'Huez ski area will undergo significant transformation with an ambitious infrastructure modernization project.

The main goal of this initiative is to replace several ski lifts, creating a smooth and optimized connection between all the resorts within the domain (Alpe d'Huez, Auris-en-Oisans, Oz 3300, Vaujany, Villard-Reculas), while enhancing access to the summit of Pic Blanc, standing at 3,300 meters above sea level.

This project is designed to offer an accessible experience for all, whether you're a skier, a pedestrian, a mountain biking enthusiast, a person with reduced mobility (PRM), a vacationer, or a local resident.

The project includes replacing existing ski lifts with five new modern and highly efficient gondolas, aiming to improve user comfort, reduce waiting times, and optimize circulation within the area.

Inaugurated on Friday, January 10, this first phase of the project includes:

• Replacing the old cabins with modern 23-seat models, offering comfortable seating and a panoramic view.
• Complete renovation of the departure station.
• A slight increase in transport capacity to streamline access to the area.

• Replacement of the Poutran gondola with a new 10-seat gondola connecting Oz-en-Oisans to the vast ski area.
• Replacement of the Rif Nel mixed lift with a 10-seat gondola.
• Renovation of stations 2 and 3 of the Pic Blanc gondola.

• Replacement of the Villarais chairlift with a 10-seat gondola, ensuring the connection between Villard-Reculas and the large area.
• Renovation of station 4 of the Pic Blanc cable car.

• Replacement of the Lièvre Blanc chairlift with a 10-seat gondola.

• Construction of a 10-seat gondola for Sarenne.
