Go skiing at La Plagne It's choosing a resort that allows skiers of all levels to hurtle down the slopes in front of magnificent panoramas. You'll have the choice of green runs to black runs and the area is so vast that you can discover new descents and new viewpoints every day. It's especially the view of Mont Blanc from La Plagne which is the most remarkable.
La Plagne and its seven stations (Center, Bellecôte, Sun, Village, Belle Plagne, Aime 2000, Plagne 1800), as well as the annexes of Montalbert, Montchavin-Les Coches et Champagny in Vanoise) allow you to ski on all slopes following the sun throughout the day.
It is a Savoyard resort perched above the Tarentaise (the Isère valley) and benefits from a balcony effect on all the massifs facing it. In addition, at the top of the ski lifts the view also opens up towards the South and the Vanoise, which means that from some chairlift or cable car arrivals you can enjoy a 360 degree panorama.
We have selected for you our five most beautiful spots in the resort, some of which are in the ideal position for taking pictures photos of Mont Blanc seen from La Plagne.
