Alex Chapman
I became a ski instructor and coach due to my passion for sport, snowsports in particular and most importantly my love of teaching and coaching. I am BASI level 4 qualified with full French equivalence and have loved every moment of this wonderful job for the last 15 years, more recently teaching and coaching both summer and winter.
I have experience of coaching and teaching all over the world, Northern and Southern Hemisphere. Les Deux Alpes is my resort of choice and home now. I have extensive knowledge of the terrain and surrounding areas and believe that Les Deux Alpes offers fantastic skiing for everyone. The beginners slopes in resort are perfect for learning, the ability to ski from 3600M to 1650M on a blue run is fantastic and the lift accessed off piste is second to non. I very much look forward to working on your skiing and sharing my paradise with you!

I love being in the mountains and countryside walking/cycling in the summer and skiing in the winter. Skiing is definitely my passion, especially the thrill of deep powder. I discovered the ski club around 15 years ago and have enjoyed meeting and skiing with SCGB members and reps on many Freshtracks weekends and weeks. I completed the Reps course in Dec 22 and met a wonderful group of guests on my first week of repping in Cortina.

Les Deux Alpes’ mix of challenging off piste runs and well-maintained slopes make it an exceptional resort for every type of skier.
Les Deux Alpes has hundreds of kilometres of pistes which are all kept in excellent condition, with new, fast lifts that take you up to the top of the glacier at 3400m. There is plenty of off-piste potential, and, if conditions and ability levels permit, day trips to Alpe d’Huez or La Grave are possible. In the town, there are loads of bars to enjoy an après drink or two but none are too noisy or boisterous!

Pros and cons
- Snowsure slopes and a massive glacier area
- Great off piste and access across to La Grave
- Lively après scene and a buzzing resort
- Lots of affordable accommodation and a great deal to do off the slopes
- Advanced skiers may find the slopes slightly limited for a week
- Exposed slopes above the treeline can be testing in bad weather
- Sun can affect the snow on the resort return runs
- Lift system could do with updating, but this is planned in the coming years!
Hotel Ibiza
For this holiday we will be heading to 3* Hotel Ibiza, located close to the slopes. With modern bedrooms, a buffet breakfast & dinner, and a fantastic wellness suite including a swimming pool, this hotel has all the amenities you could require for a great stay in Les Deux Alpes. There is also a ski shop attached to the hotel meaning you can be fitted and ready to go, the afternoon you arrive. This holiday is on a single occupancy basis. You will therefore be placed in a room on your own for the duration of the trip.

The policy should also include cover against losses caused by the effects or consequences of Covid-19.
Due to the type of holidays that you will be booking with us, we also advise that your policy should include skiing off-piste without a guide. Please note, insurance premiums must be paid at the same time as booking in order for the package holiday or single service cancellation cover to be effective. It is also advised to keep your insurance details with you while you are on your holiday. If you choose to travel without adequate insurance cover, we will not be liable for any losses howsoever arising, in respect of which insurance cover would otherwise have been available.
