Set high in the Savoie French Alps, dominated by the tallest mountain in Europe, Mont Blanc, the ski resort of La Plagne is part of 'Paradiski' one of the biggest high altitude skiing and snowboarding areas in the world. It is a mixture of traditional villages and ultra-modern purpose-designed centres, each virtually self-contained with shops, ski schools and direct access to the ski area.
The resort of La Plagne is split into ten stations, which gives the opportunity to ski a number of quaint, French villages in a huge ski area. Our chalets are all based in the four main areas of Belle Plagne, Plagne Centre, Plagne 1800 and Plagne Villages. Whilst the main commercial centre is in Plagne Centre, there are supermarkets and ski hire shops in the other villages. All areas are linked by a free bus service.
Skiing in La Plagne offers something for all levels of skier. The terrain varies from glacier to powder snowfields and forest. There are 225km of pistes in the ski resort of La Plagne, offering the largest amount of skiing anywhere, by any other resort. Lift passes purchased for six days or more are valid for a day skiing in other top ski resorts including Val d'Isere, Tignes and Courchevel. More convenient though is the Paradiski link by the spectacular Vanoise Express double-decker cable car to the Les Arcs ski area across the valley, more or less doubling the skiing available from your doorstep.
