With skiing at a lung challenging altitude of 3250m and with 225km of piste, La Plagne is already a snow-sure and extensive ski area in its own right. Now linked to Les Arcs, even fast and experienced skiers would be hard pushed to cover the 425km of piste that the Paradiski has to offer in a week. Our home is on the piste and next to the lifts in Plagne Centre, perched at 2000m in the very heart of the ski domain.
The resort won’t win any prizes for prettiest village, but the altitude, ski-in/out convenience and outstanding views make it easy to forgive a few 70’s architectural howlers. Plagne Centre is pleasantly lively and easily the best served of all the local resorts in terms of shops, ski-schools and apres-ski. The lift system is excellent, with fast access to the high reds off La Grand Rochette and the long easy blues above Aime 2000.
A skiing paradise for beginners, intermediates will also feel instantly at home on the miles of gentle blues and some of the longest vertical descents in the whole of the Alps. Once you’ve found your ski legs, the Bellecote Glacier reds are also eminently achievable, and for the brave, the more challenging blacks beyond. Experts will relish the vast and exhilarating off-piste bowls which are tracked much more slowly than the high-profile resorts.

Snowmobile / Skidooing
The snowmobile is a fantastic way to get around, offering an exhilarating experience in a safe environment. Accessible to adults and children, no driving license is required. These outings enable you to discover the different dimensions of snow mobile driving. Either be the driver, or if that doesn’t suit you then take the opportunity to be the passenger. The departure point is from Plagne Centre and is run each evening after the lifts have closed.
Bobsleigh
La Plagne is home to the 1992 Olympic Bobsleigh run which is open to the public throughout the winter season. Take either a solo run, a group of 4 in a taxi run, or if you fancy seeing how it really is done, take a trip with a professional driver who will take you to speeds of up to 110kph!
Parapenteing / handgliding
Realise mankind’s oldest dream, soaring above the mountains in total freedom. Take a flight in a dual harness with a qualified paragliding instructor from one of the many ideal sites in La Plagne including off the top of the Roche de Mio at 2700m.
