Le Collet d'Allevard is a ski resort in the Belledonne range of the French Alps, located in the department of Isère in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, approximately 11.5 km (7.1 mi) from Allevard.
For several years, Le Collet organized La nuit du ski each 30 December, which brought together the best skiers of the French national team.
In 2015, logistical difficulties resulted in a second year without the event and La nuit du ski was planned to return in 2016.
