Allemond is the value entry to the Alpe d'Huez Grand Domaine — a lakeside valley village in the Oisans where, since 2020, a fast new gondola has put the 250km ski domain within an eight-minute ride. It pairs the lowest prices in the area with a genuine summer on the Lac du Verney.
For UK buyers, Allemond offers the most affordable way into a major domain, in a real valley village with a lake on the doorstep — a dual-season base rather than a ski-only station.
A Short History
Allemond is an old valley village in the Eau d'Olle, reshaped by the great EDF Grand'Maison hydro-electric scheme — France's largest hydroelectric power station — whose lower reservoir, the Lac du Verney, was created when the Verney dam was built in the early 1980s. For decades Allemond was the valley base below the ski-access villages; the opening of the Eau d'Olle Express gondola in December 2020 changed that, giving the village direct, rapid access into the ski domain and transforming its appeal to buyers.
The Resort
Allemond sits low in the valley at around 710 metres, beside the 75-hectare Lac du Verney. The Eau d'Olle Express, a ten-person gondola, climbs from the village to Oz 3300 in about eight minutes, and from there the onward gondolas reach Alpe d'Huez and Vaujany across the Alpe d'Huez Grand Domaine. It is a lived-in valley village rather than a ski station.
Where to Buy — The Areas of Allemond
The choice in Allemond is mostly about the lake, the village and proximity to the gondola.
Village centre
Around the village core, close to services and the Eau d'Olle Express — the most convenient base, with affordable apartments and chalets.
Towards the lake
Positions near the Lac du Verney, valued for the summer setting and views, the strongest for dual-season appeal.
Buyers comparing the valley should also look at Oz 3300, Vaujany and the wider Grand Domaine market.
The Skiing
Via the Eau d'Olle Express to Oz 3300, Allemond connects into the Alpe d'Huez Grand Domaine — around 250 kilometres of pistes across eight linked resorts, rising to the Pic Blanc glacier at 3,330 metres, home of the Sarenne, marketed as Europe's longest black run. The gondola makes Allemond's valley-floor position viable as a ski base for the first time, while keeping it well below resort prices.
The Property Market
Allemond is the most affordable new-build market in the Oisans valley. Current developer pricing data (Q2 2026) runs from around €165,000 for a studio and €195,000 for a one-bedroom to about €505,000 for a three-bedroom, averaging roughly €4,900 per square metre across two programmes — markedly below the ski-access villages above. The full breakdown is in the table below.
Resale is more affordable still, broadly around €3,200 per square metre on current benchmarks (apartments lower, chalets a little higher). UK buyers can model monthly costs in sterling with our French mortgage calculator.
Rental demand is genuinely dual-season: the new gondola opens winter ski-domain access, while the Lac du Verney drives a real summer of watersports and lakeside tourism — a combination few resorts offer at this price.
Lifestyle & Activities Beyond Skiing
The lake is Allemond's defining summer asset.
Summer
- Lac du Verney watersports — paddleboarding, sailing, windsurfing and pedaloes from equipped beaches (note: as a working reservoir, swimming and motorboats are not permitted).
- Cycling and hiking — the Oisans' great cols and trails, with the lake as a base.
- Lakeside life — beaches, green space and a summer guinguette.
Family appeal
A real valley village, the lake for summer and a fast gondola to the slopes make Allemond a value-led, dual-season family base.
Accessibility
For the Oisans, Lyon is the natural airport — around 2 hours (about 140km) — with Grenoble closest at roughly 1 hour 15 to 1 hour 30, and Geneva around 2 hours 30. Direct UK flights serve Lyon and Geneva.
Why Buy in Allemond
Allemond suits the buyer who wants the lowest entry price into a major domain plus a genuine summer base. It is a valley village, so the gondola is your route to the slopes rather than skiing from the door — but for value, lakeside living and dual-season use with the Alpe d'Huez Grand Domaine a short ride away, Allemond is one of the strongest-value purchases in the French Alps.
