VAUJANY (1300m–3300m) is simply different. Nestled on a stunningly scenic slope in the corner of the Alpe d’Huez domain, this charming village offers a refreshing contrast to the large, purpose-built resorts. With over 300 days of glorious blue skies each year, it’s part of one of the sunniest ski areas in the French Alps - yet it remains delightfully tucked away. Vaujany is the ultimate backdoor ski resort: authentic, peaceful, and beautifully connected.
A ski holiday in Vaujany reveals why the village proudly holds the prestigious Famille Plus label and was named Best Family Resort by Alpes Magazine. When you stay with Ski Peak, you’ll enjoy luxurious chalet accommodation, exceptional cuisine both on and off the mountain, and access to world-class skiing. From a fantastic local ski school to the longest black run in Europe, Vaujany offers 2,200m of vertical descent - without ever stepping onto a lift.
Seamlessly linked to Alpe d’Huez, this winning combination has delighted guests for over 30 seasons. It’s no wonder so many return year after year.
Vaujany is a welcoming, traditional mountain village with a strong sense of community—yet it’s blessed with outstanding modern infrastructure. Wander its quiet, safe streets and discover a handful of cosy bars perfect for après-ski, excellent local restaurants, and the impressive, state-of-the-art leisure centre featuring a swimming pool, gym, and wellness facilities.
Each morning, enjoy effortless access to the slopes via Vaujany’s ultra-fast, queue-free 160-person gondola. Whether you're joining the long-established ski school—renowned for its friendly instructors and family-friendly approach—or venturing off-piste with one of the superb local guides, every day promises unforgettable alpine adventure.
""It is perfect for families with young children and teenagers as you can safely give them independence""

A mere kilometre from Vaujany, La Villette (1400m–3300m) is the hamlet of rural French Alpine dreams - timeless, tranquil, and utterly enchanting… with a twist.
Our beautifully restored private chalets; Rostaing, Lucette, and Dibona - sit among traditional mountain homes where goats and chickens still inhabit cellars and lofts. Life here flows gently, as it has for centuries, with locals embracing a rhythm rooted in nature and heritage. As evening falls, a peaceful hush settles over the village, making your wood-fire-lit lounge the perfect place to unwind and truly disconnect.
And here’s the twist: La Villette offers true ski-in/ski-out access, a rare privilege even Vaujany can’t claim. It’s alpine living at its most authentic - with just the right touch of luxury.
