The Skiers' Guide to La Plagne

Best resort for all round fun, lots of intermediate runs, fun off piste if you get a powder day, lots to do for families and if you aren’t skiing and great apres and food all round

I went to La Plagne last week with a group of 27 friends and we stayed in an apartment perfectly located by the chair lift up the mountain and a bar called La Mine which I highly recommend, we went every night and they have a live band Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. The Apres bar in La Plagne centre, La Bergerie was also great fun which started at 2.30 pm. Overall I had the best time!

Great resort. Versatile, snow sure and not overpriced. The ski area links together seamlessly, with good choices of restaurants and bars at the side of the slope. I’ve been many times and would recommend.

Great place too take beginners but if you want too eat out at lunch you have plenty of money in the bank.

Lovely resort was quite hard for a full beginner like myself, there was only a handful of slopes I could do but it’s a great place to build confidence

La Plagne and the whole Paradaski area is by far the resort ski area I have ever skied. It has so much to offer for every level for skier or snowboarder. The lift options, variable terrain, on and off piste is to die far. Absolute heaven. So many restaurants and apres options with alot of experiences throughout like husky rides and tubing or just a fun old fashioned bum board.

Beautiful resort with fantastic runs and a lot of them. Family friendly, with a good apres vibe also

Great conditions and relatively quiet slopes after peak season, easy to get around plenty of skiing for all abilities and good apres

I went clubmed la plagne and the food there was very nice and there was firework i had such good experience

We stayed at Belle Plagne, our accommodation was right next to the piste, which allowed us to get to away early. The resort had a good level of Bars & shops with a nice relaxed atmosphere. The whole area was nicely connected and getting over to Les Arcs was so easy. The amount of skiing was next level, so much to explore. Definitely going back!

Early morning runs are the best part of the la plagne area. The carving opportunities on fairly empty runs which have been perfectly groomed are amazing. Some runs are just snowed over roads in areas tho!

La Plagne - les coches good resort for access to both Paradiski and les arcs.

Good mix of skiing and types apres/family area

Such a great resort with a plethora of interesting runs, cute lunch spots, great bars, and beautiful views. There are so many different areas to explore that I never found myself getting bored going down the same pistes over and over again. It’s a great resort for when travelling with a group of different ski abilities too, as there were options to travel down the mountain via blue, red or black that led to near enough the same place at the bottom.

Really good value with friends or family, book early for cheap accommodation. Pistes felt nice and was super easy to ski in les arcs as well

La Plagne is a brilliant family friendly resort that provides a range of styles of skiing. It is quiet with low queue times. The town is lacking on the apres ski aspect but if you are looking gor a nice chill ski holiday La Plagne is the perfect option. We stayed in Champagny-en-Vanoise which was lovely. Would recomend this resort to any ability of skier.

It was nice week. Slopes and skiing was nice. Accommodation was on the slopes directly. The lifts were not so busy. But the slopes were not always fully groomed, but was challenging. Otherwise, it was a nice resort with lots of variety of slopes.

The trip to la plagne was amazing with a good amount of snow before the blizzard hit in. Our trip was to montalbert which had very easy access into la plagne centre and beyond. The snow was strong and well groomed for great ski conditions

We had a great holiday as a family of 4 staying in plagne village. Even though it hadn’t snowed in a month the pistes were all very well kept and when it snowed in the last 2 days it was very organised and most lifts were still open.

Lots of ski area to work with, we were on the champagny side. Hadn't snowed for a while so it was pretty icy, most of the black runs were closed.

Majority of the slopes are above the tree line

Decent spot, especially for intermediates and families. newRoche de Mio gondola. It has finally fixed the 40-year "bottleneck" at Bellecôte, cuts the trip to the summit to just 9 minutes.
The snow reliability is a good; a lot of the area above 2,000m, even the unseasonably warm spells haven't ruined the high runs.
