DIRECT’O SKI: PAY AS YOU SKI

OZ 3300/ VAUJANY
Zero hassle, zero queues at the ticket office, the Direct’O Ski telebadge allows you to pay only for the days skied, depending on the ski area used.
The offer is valid throughout Alpe d’Huez Grand Domaine Ski, i.e. 250 km of slopes. The principle is simple, if during a day you only ski in the Oz-Vaujany sector, the day is billed at the Oz-Vaujany rate. And if there is a day when you just want to lounge on the terrace, you won’t pay the full price!
Membership price for the Direct’O Ski card: €15 for a family of 4 people. (2 € per additional person)
