Book Your Lift Ride to Alpe d’Huez Summit

The ascent to the top of the slopes at Alpe d'Huez at 3,330m has become ever more popular. The Pic Blanc is the starting point of a number of classic ski runs, including the world's longest black, the famous Sarenne.
Although you can get lucky and arrive at the base of the fast Pic Blanc cable-car to the top and find no queues, more often it will be a wait to board the cable car, which has led Alpe d'Huez to introduce the chance to book your ascent on the lift in advance with a service they've called 'Direct To The Peak'.
The service is completely free, but subject to availability and needs to be booked in advance, online, via the Alpe d'Huez website. You'll also need to know the serial number of your lift pass in order to make your reservation. You can book a maximum of two ascents a day.
Late arrivals for a reserved time slot will have their reservation automatically cancelled so you're advised to arrive a few minutes early. Bookings will also be cancelled automatically if there are issues with the lift's operation due to extreme weather or technical problems.
