Bus service to Alpe d’Huez

With the van in the garage we took the opportunity of trying out the bus service to Alpe d’Huez last weekend. 

We were pretty impressed!  The buses are clean and on time and have plenty of space for your boards and skis, and the drivers are friendly and helpful.

The best way to use the service is to buy your tickets three days in advance, that way you can buy a return for the times you want to travel and get a great price, a 10 trip card costs about 13 euros. 

If you’re not that organised you can still buy single trip tickets on the day at a cost of 1.90 each way but places are limited so you may not get the time you want to travel. 

The bus stops at the bus depot in Alpe d’Huez so you can pop off and buy your return on the way up, and then drops you off right on the pistes at Les Bergers.
