Alpe d'Huez, strictly kosher
Isère, about 1,860 m, with a long kosher summer history
Alpe d'Huez sits in Isère at about 1,860 m, the main resort of the Grand Domaine, and its lifts run from 5 December 2026 to 25 April 2027 according to the resort. Kosher tourism made up nearly 20 % of its August clientele in 2019, per the tourist office director. Mishpacha Tours organises the kosher side of your stay here: a private chef in your chalet, hot meals delivered to your apartment, Shabbat, the holidays, and a minyan and a Sefer Torah for your dates. One request, one written quote. Stays, transfers and meals are organised and invoiced by our kosher team based in the Alps; Mishpacha Tours sells its guided tours in Lyon.

What we organise in Alpe d'Huez
- A chalet or apartment with a private chef. Our kosher team based in the Alps makes the kitchen kosher and cooks on site. Every meal of the week is taken care of.
- Meals delivered in the resort. Hot meals delivered to your apartment or your hotel for the week, for a family or a group, with notice.
- Shabbat. Shabbat meals, challot and wine delivered on Friday before candle lighting. Nothing is delivered on Shabbat.
- The holidays. Hanukkah, Purim or Pesach on the mountain. Tell us which holiday falls in your week.
- A minyan and a Sefer Torah. The size of a minyan depends on how many families are in the resort that week. Give us your dates and we group the families who write to us.
- A tailor-made stay, A to Z. Chalet, chef or delivered meals, transfers, Shabbat, the holidays, a minyan: one request, one quote. Families and groups from abroad are our core; for a very small group asking for one delivery only, say so and we tell you what is feasible.
Strictly kosher. Our team cooks under the Chabad network of the Alps; ask for the supervision details in writing with your quote.
