La Plagne only has 18 black pistes, mostly found around Aime 2000 / Biolley and also on the Glacier Bellecôte – however, if you’re really wanting to challenge yourself in the resort, you’d be much better hiring a guide and tackling the extensive off-piste available around the resort. Also, you might want to consider making the journey across to Les Arcs where there are far more black pistes. Actually, some of the red runs in La Plagne would be steep enough to be graded higher elsewhere so you could consider checking out our guide to the best red runs in La Plagne.
