A skiing holiday with Ski Peak in this stunning village ski resort lets you fully indulge in luxurious catered or non-catered accommodation, world-class cuisine, unbeatable skiing – a great local ski school and the longest black run in Europe, plus 2200m of vertical descent without using a lift. Perfectly linked to Alpe d’Huez, it has proved a winning combination for more than 20 seasons and one that ensures an extremely high guest return rate year after year.

Vaujany village resort is a small friendly traditional community, blessed with outstanding modern facilities and infrastructure. Stroll around small, safe streets and seek out the three or four charming bars for après ski, a couple of great village restaurants and the fantastic state-of-the-art Vaujany swimming pool, gym and leisure centre. In the mornings take advantage of its super fast, queue-less 160 man lift, its own long-established ski school for adults and kids alike or hire one of the great local private guides for an off-piste experience to remember!
Ski Peak has been the exclusive British operator here for more than two decades. We don’t go anywhere else – we don’t need to! Take advantage of our specialist knowledge and come ski Vaujany with us. Here are a few more reasons why...

We think you'll love...
... the feeling of ‘discovering’ a hidden gem. Vaujany will soon feel like ‘your’ resort. You’ll have your favourite pistes for getting back home at the end of the day, your favourite après ski tipple in one of its cosy bars and your table in the great village restaurants or, if catered, your favourite French wine with dinner.

Vaujany really is different because...
... it is a village before it’s a resort. Vaujany has a strong sense of community and village spirit. This gives it a truly friendly atmosphere where you’ll soon feel part of the place. It’s safe, small and full of friendly faces making it ideal for family skiing holidays.

Why you'll keep coming back...
... a Ski Peak holiday provides a rather addictive combination of amazing snow (on and off-piste), world-class food, wonderful accommodation and staff that really care that you’re having the best possible time.

LA VILLETTE (1400m–3300m) is the sort of hamlet of which rural French Alpine dreams are made, but with a twist. Your beautifully restored private chalet is surrounded by gorgeous traditional mountain homes, where goats and chickens still inhabit cellars and lofts. Locals go about their traditional rural way of living as they have done for centuries and in the evenings a peace descends making your wood-fire lit lounge the perfect place to relax and really unwind. And the twist? Just above this mountain bliss – you’re linked to Alpe d’Huez giving you more than 240kms of world-class pistes with 80+ state of the art lifts combine to make a perfect old meets new.
Just over 1 kilometre up the road from Vaujany, La Villette is a village ski resort par excellence. It offers the slightly more adventurous and independently minded the chance to stay in surroundings the likes of which few remain, ski in and out of the village or take advantage of our shuttles and let us chauffeur you to and from the lifts.
All our accommodation in La Villette is in beautifully converted traditional fully-catered Alpine Chalets. They are complete with modern luxurious fittings, ensuite bedrooms, log fires, fantastic meals and French wines. You’ll be pampered all week by your private live out fully qualified chef and chalet host – perfect for families and groups of friends.

It's special for this reason...
... La Villette just feels like a home from home the minute you arrive. You’ll take over one of our beautifully finished chalets in a stunning genuine Alpine setting where you can feel and breathe the history and traditions in one of the most beautiful corners of the Alps.

Perfect for young families because...
... there is simply no better place to build snow-men than in La Villette! That and the great chef-cooked children’s dinners, the friendly local Vaujany Ski School, the local fauna, watch out for chickens and goats on the streets, all combine to make family holiday bliss.

We promise you just adore...
... the combination of staying in rural bliss with the ease of getting on the pistes in the mornings. A three minute ride in a private shuttle, a 30 second ride down an escalator and onto a 160 man queue-less lift and you’re whisked up to 2800m and beyond in no time.

Summer Activities
The swimming pool and sports complex has a 25m indoor heated swimming pool with water slide, sports hall, gymnasium, sauna, jacuzzi and steam room. Vaujany's 160-person cable car runs six times a day during July and August giving access at the first station to spectacular walks and mountain-biking beside lakes and meadows brimming with wild flowers or higher up where there is often snow still lying at 2800metres.

Down in the village there is a wonderful tennis club where, having trounced the competition, you can relax with drink in hand on the terrace, take your lunch under the parasols and let your children enjoy the playground. If you feel adventurous this is the place to sign up for your first tandem paragliding flight.

Within an hours drive there is also boating, river rafting, canoeing and mountaineering in the Parc des Ecrins. The possibilities are endless and you will never feel a lack of space. You will feast on the delicious mountain air and sensational blue skies.

Childcare Services
Vaujany also has a superb day nursery taking children from 6 months to 5 years old inclusive and an excellent children's activity club offering all the local activities from rock climbing on the artificial climbing wall to archery up at the tennis club.

Ski Kindergarten/Ski School and Garderie Day Nursery
Children 4 and 5 years old
Open 9.30am - 5pm
For lively 4 and 5 year olds there are tailor-made packages of activities provided by Vaujany's small, friendly ski school (ESF). In the morning, children can find their ski legs at the ski kindergarten and after a supervised lunch spend the afternoon having more fun in the Garderie day nursery.

Ski school starts at approximately 9.30am when ski school instructors meet children at the main lift station in Vaujany and accompany them up to the ski kindergarten at Montfrais. After a lunch stop at the mountain restaurant all 4 year olds and any 5 year old beginners are accompanied back to the day nursery for an afternoon of games and activities until 5pm.

For those who are new to skiing, the Jardin de Neige (ski kindergarten) at Montfrais near to the top of the gondola has a special nursery ski lift and some pretend animals. Children are gently introduced to snow by simply walking on their skis, tobogganing or skiing down the short nursery slopes.
