Alpe d'Huez in the summer is no longer just about the famous climb from Bourg d'Oisans.
Its summer skiiing is making a comeback. For the second year running, the Pic Blanc Glacier is open for business. Four pistes are available including part of the famous Sarenne run. More background here from France 3 Alpes, which includes a video.
This brings the number of French ski resorts offering summer skiing to four. Alongside Alpe d'Huez we have Val d'Isere, Tignes and Les 2 Alpes. More background on the rise and relative fall of ski d'été here.
