Activity description

Come and ski off-piste and discover Alpe d'Huez, Oz and Vaujany with an experienced UIAGM mountain guide!

Whether you're on your own or with friends, explore wild and unusual places and go in search of the best snow...

The Massif des Grandes Rousses, famous for its Alpe d'Huez and Oz-Vaujany resorts, offers a multitude of off-piste itineraries for all levels of skier.

You'll enjoy incredible vertical drops of over 2,000 metres from the lifts or with a bit of walking.

Denis Ailloud, your UIAGM High Mountain Guide, will take you on a day of off-piste skiing. Depending on the level of the group of 1 to 6 people, your mountain guide will decide which route you take during your off-piste skiing session in Alpe d'Huez. You can ski the Grand Sablat, the Combe du Cerisier or the Arête de Pied Froid and its descents into the Vallée du Ferrand.

The more adventurous can enjoy the Glacier des Malatres, Pic Bayle and Glacier des Quirlies.

The west-facing slopes also offer a number of itineraries leading to the Vallée de l'Eau d'Olle in Oz and Vaujany.

So strap on your skis and let loose for a day of off-piste skiing in Alpe d'Huez!
