This winter, the ski area is evolving and taking on a new identity: Espace Alpe d’Huez What’s new in the ski area – Alpe d’Huez – Official Website – Winter<\/a>. This isn’t just a logo facelift or a marketing whim: the new name symbolises the union of the five resorts that make up the ski area, namely Alpe d’Huez, Auris-en-Oisans, Oz-en-Oisans, Vaujany and Villard-Reculas What’s new in the ski area – Alpe d’Huez – Official Website – Winter<\/a>. After decades spent under various names that never truly reflected the soul of the area, the resort is finally embracing its identity: an open, connected space where five authentic villages form one big mountain family. The word “Espace” wasn’t chosen at random: it evokes freedom, openness and fluidity. You’re no longer in “a resort with satellite villages”, but in a truly unified territory.<\/p>\n\n More than just a change of name, Espace Alpe d’Huez reflects a strong ambition: to offer a smoother, more consistent experience, whether you’re with family, with friends or on your own, and to let everyone enjoy the variety of landscapes and atmospheres in each village, while keeping the ease of getting around and the unity of a large, connected ski area What’s new in the ski area – Alpe d’Huez – Official Website – Winter<\/a>. What does that mean in practice? That you can stay in the peace and quiet of Auris-en-Oisans with its renovated farmhouses, ski the sunny slopes of Alpe d’Huez, have lunch in the cosy atmosphere of Vaujany, explore the wild runs of Villard-Reculas and end up in Oz-en-Oisans, all with a single lift pass and without ever feeling like an outsider anywhere. Each village keeps its own unique character, but they all now come under the same banner.<\/p>\n\n This name change isn’t merely cosmetic: it goes hand in hand with the Altitude 3300 project, a major transformation of the ski area running from 2024 to 2027 What’s new in the ski area – Alpe d’Huez – Official Website – Winter<\/a>. The aim: to modernise the lifts to create a seamless link between the 5 village resorts and make it easier to reach the Pic Blanc, at an altitude of 3,300 metres What’s new in the ski area – Alpe d’Huez – Official Website – Winter<\/a>. The name “Espace Alpe d’Huez” really comes into its own with this project: in 2024, new 23-seat panoramic cabins were installed on the Pic Blanc gondola; in 2025, a new 10-seat cable car will link the Poutran, Rif Nel and Pic lift routes; in 2026, the Villarais sector will be renovated to connect Villard-Reculas to the ski area What’s new in the ski area – Alpe d’Huez – Official Website – Winter<\/a>. Every technical investment reinforces the idea of a unified space where the boundaries between villages fade away.<\/p>\n\n Espace Alpe d’Huez doesn’t want to be elitist. The project is designed to be accessible to everyone: skiers, pedestrians, mountain bikers and people with reduced mobility, with the aim of offering an inclusive, modern experience What’s new in the ski area – Alpe d’Huez – Official Website – Winter<\/a>. It’s not just a ski area: it’s a territory that everyone can explore in their own way. Fancy going up to the Pic Blanc without skiing? The new cabins will welcome you on board. In a wheelchair and dreaming of seeing the panorama at 3,330 metres? That will be possible. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned skier, a fan of panoramic views, fun activities or gourmet breaks, Espace Alpe d’Huez welcomes you for a unique experience at the summit What’s new in the ski area – Alpe d’Huez – Official Website – Winter<\/a>. The name says it all: here, there’s space for everyone.<\/p>\n\n By adopting this new identity, Alpe d’Huez is declaring that it’s not just a ski resort, but a genuine mountain territory: vibrant, connected, accessible and forward-looking.
