Renting in Alpe de Venosc: what you need to know

Village and resort

Venosc is a mountain village next to Les 2 Alpes, linked to the resort by a gondola ride of about eight minutes. For a rental in Alpe de Venosc, our offer is at the Andromede residence: mainly studios for up to 4 people, some 100 m from the slopes.

The setting

Venosc lies in the Vénéon valley, on the edge of the Écrins National Park. The atmosphere is calm and on a human scale, far from the bustle of the Les 2 Alpes snow front.

Our presence

Our Mountain Collection agency in Les 2 Alpes, at 9 rue des Sagnes, is open every day.

Advice from our Les 2 Alpes agency, updated in October 2026.

From Venosc

The Venosc gondola reaches Les 2 Alpes in about eight minutes. From the top of the village, the Super Venosc gondola and the Télémixte de Vallée Blanche take you to the Vallée Blanche sector, then to Belle Étoile and the rest of the ski area.

Getting started

For your first turns, we recommend the Les 2 Alpes snow front and its free conveyor lifts. After that, the Vallée Blanche green run lets you stay on this side of the ski area; the Demoiselles green run goes down from Belle Étoile to the snow front.

Improving

In the Vallée Blanche sector, Vallée Blanche 1 is a blue run and Vallée Blanche 2 a red run. We recommend it to skiers who are already comfortable on blue runs, or to those who want to try a red run without leaving this side of the ski area.

The ski area

The Les 2 Alpes ski area has 220 km of runs, from 1,300 to 3,600 metres in altitude, served by 39 lifts. The Les 2 Alpes ski schools give lessons to children and adults alike, with programmes for the youngest depending on the package.

Venosc on foot

Without skis, you can discover Venosc on foot, through its cobbled lanes and century-old houses. You can step into galleries and craft workshops: pottery, glassmaking, blacksmithing. Around Alpe de Venosc, the remains of slate quarries recall an activity that lasted until the 1960s.

With children

In Les 2 Alpes, children have the ice rink, the airbag and the Snake Gliss’ (a snake sledge), depending on their size. The youngest ski in the snow gardens, on flat areas with conveyor lifts.

A day without skis

We recommend setting aside half a day for the discovery trails around Venosc, combining natural and built heritage. Pedestrians can also go up to Les 2 Alpes on the Venosc gondola, free or included depending on the ski pass: the ride up opens a view over the valley.

Local flavours

The small local market is held on Tuesday mornings in summer on the square at the foot of the gondola: cheeses, local and seasonal produce. Venosc also carries the old tradition of the pedlar-florists, linked to the plant trade in the area.

Where to stay

For a rental in Alpe de Venosc with our agency, look at the Andromede residence: it is our address there.

For two or a small family

Andromede mainly offers studios, for up to 4 people depending on the accommodation: a compact format that suits a couple, an adult with a child or a small family. The “Studio” filter isolates them in the search.

To ski from Alpe de Venosc

If your priority is to be on the slopes quickly, look at the Andromede accommodation located 100 m from the slopes, with the “Close to the slopes” filter.

Getting there and collecting the keys

From Grenoble, the road follows the Romanche valley to Bourg-d’Oisans, then the Vénéon valley. From Briançon, you go via the Col du Lautaret and La Grave. Without a car, the free shuttles number 8 and Oisans link Bourg-d’Oisans with Venosc. For the keys, the handover depends on the accommodation: the exact place and opening hours are shown on the voucher.
