The winter and summer resort, Alpe d'Huez, is located on the South face of the mountain Les Grandes Rousses at the altitude of 1860 m. Le Pic Blanc, 3330 m, offers a 3 stars view in the Michelin Guide. The high altitude guarantees snow on the 245 km. of slopes, including the longest slope of the world: La Sarenne. Thanks to the 770 snow canons, the return to Alpe d'Huez and the other mountain villages is possible by skiing.
