In the heart of the beautiful French Alps, just two hours from Grenoble, with impressive skiing to suit all abilities and some fantastic resorts to choose from including Les 2 Alpes and Alpe d’Huez, plus Vaujany and Chamrousse (through our sister company, Peak Retreats), it’s no wonder Isère is one of the most popular mountain destinations in France. In addition to some great ski there is also a brilliant range of alternative activities to try. Below is just a taste of what the area has to offer you this season...
Delve into the magical world of an ice cave. Situated at an altitude of 3,200 metres, the cave was hollowed out 30 metres beneath the glacier surface. Discover works of art sculpted into the ice!
