About Vaujany
Vaujany is a commune in the Isère department whose land climbs from 752 m to 3,464 m. With 357 residents in 2023 it is a small village, and a cable car and gondola connect it to the Alpe d'Huez ski area. Two runs come back down into the valley, each with a short lift that serves the village. Alpe d'Huez Grand Domaine Ski includes Vaujany and Oz-en-Oisans among five connected villages. The homes sit close together, mostly sleeping around six, with nearly all having a pool and a sauna and none a fireplace. A fair number sleep eight or more. Two hydroelectric dams, Grand'Maison and Verney, pay the commune rents that fund leisure facilities.
