Ski holidays in La Plagne, will give you access to an extensive ski area teamed with brilliant, high altitude skiing on uncrowded pistes.
La Plagne boasts nearly 225 km of pistes. It is an integral part of Paradiski, one of the biggest ski areas in the world, with 425 km of interconnected pistes. With 70% of the ski area above 2,000 metres altitude, it has a great snow record. There are great nursery slopes for beginners but also plenty of blue and red slopes to keep the more intermediate skiers and snowboarders happy. La Plagne offers a variety of après ski opportunities with a mix of late bars and restaurants and each village in la Plagne hosts its own ski school, restaurants, bars and shops.
La Plagne gets our vote for families, not only because of its gentle wide open slopes and well-placed nursery slopes but because of the fun non-ski activities that it offers. Families will enjoy the fun pistes of Funslope, Buffalo Park, Buffalo kids, Timed Slalom, Equaliser & Goblin Forest.
La Plagne sounds like one resort but actually consists of ten centres, including the areas in which we have our accommodation - Plagne 1800, Plagne Soleil (2,050m) and Belle Plagne (2,050m). Six of the centres are high altitude purpose-built stations and four are traditional villages.
Purpose-built and functional, Plagne Centre caters primarily for families although couples or groups will find fun in Scottys, La Luna, Igloo and La Cheminee bars. For lunch on the mountain, Le Chalet Des Verdons Sud is a must.
La Plagne is also something of a gem for freeride fans – because the majority of skiers are intermediates, fresh powder doesn’t get tracked out as quickly as it would in big name off-piste resorts. Freestyle Zones include Champagny boarder cross, Montchavin boarder cross, Bellecote Halfpipe, Snowpark & Air Bag.
Another massive attraction in La Plagne is its bobsleigh track. Those who don’t know what fear is can ride the high-speed bobsleigh with a professional driver or take a solo Luge ride; the rest of the family can have fun in the Bob Cart, which carries four passengers, travels at speeds of up to 85kph and provides videos to prove you’ve actually done it. Visitors to La Plagne can also enjoy the Colorado Luge.
If you’re planning on holidaying with friends in La Plagne but are booking separately, it’s worth having a discussion beforehand to ensure that you all end up in the same resort centre!
With a passion for both winter and summer sports, Lynsey has worked for Topflight for over 9 years in Austria, France and Italy. During the winter months she is based in the heart of the French Alps and in the summer she swaps her skis for sandals to enjoy all that Lake Garda has to offer. “I couldn’t possibly choose which season I prefer, I’ve skied since I was 5 years old and I can never get enough but there’s something really magical about the summer on Lake Garda. I truly believe there is something here for everyone and that’s part of what makes it so special.”
