Reviews in Oz-en-Oisans

Oz-en-Oisans is not as famous as the larger resorts, but certainly a destination for a great skiing holiday. Oz Oisans is on of the smaller villages in the area around Alpe d'Huez, and therefore also provides access to the entire ski area. In the pedestrianized centre with restaurants, shops and a children's animation team this ski destination is equipped with all modern comforts one would want. A typical village for a pleasant family holiday, that still gives access to the most challenging black slopes that the area has to offer.

Slope information Alpe d'Huez - Oz-en-Oisans

The Alpe d'Huez ski resort is fantastic for advanced skiers because of the large number of black slopes. These are easily accessible by the modern ski lifts, and by a small cable-train. This ski area includes one of the longest black slopes in the world: the Sarene-slope. With a non-stop descent of nearly 17 km, the Sarene ensures that you have a nice long and uninterrupted descent! Another black ski run, the Champagne is also very worthwhile. The long blue ski Signal is recommended for beginners and advanced skiers, this takes you from the top of the signal below the village of Villard-Reculas. There are also countless off-piste possibilities in Alpe d'Huez, with some lovely descents in deep snow. The pure off-piste ski resort La Grave is easily accessible from Alpe d'Huez.
