The Grande Rochette lift Télébus is a pedestrian lift that provides quick access between Plagne Soleil / Plagne Villages and Plagne Centre. Depending on where you’re staying, the walk back from Centre by road can take between 30 and 45 minutes – but, even with this lift, the far reaches of Soleil and Villages still take around 20 minutes from the top station.
The original guide records operation from 09.00 until 20.30, followed by a bus service until around 23.45. These are historical hours; check the resort timetable before relying on an evening connection.
