The helipad
Getting there
Les Deux Alpes sits on a shelf in the Oisans, facing Alpe d'Huez, above Bourg-d'Oisans. The Mont-de-Lans — Les Deux Alpes helipad is listed in the French civil aviation authority's register of heliports. The resort owes its reputation to its glacier, which carries skiing late in the season when valley areas have already closed.
When to go
Winter season from December to April, extended into spring by the glacier. The resort also draws summer traffic around downhill mountain biking and glacier skiing, more irregular in terms of flights.
