Belle Plagne rated
Unlike many of La Plagne’s other villages, Belle Plagne gets the sun pretty much all day, meaning terrace beers later in the season, long after the other resorts are already in shade. It also has the Deep Nature spa if you’re looking for a little pampering plus some great restaurants.
It’s also worth bearing in mind, La Plagne offers a relatively regular bus service between all the main stations at night – so a trip to Plagne Centre or the other villages is always possible if you tire of the local scene. Plus there’s also the gondola link down to Bellecôte.
Check the Belle Plagne pistes and Belle Plagne lifts – part of the Bellecôte sector – or check the 3D map of La Plagne.
Cover sorted for Belle Plagne?
As handy as the piste-side access is in Belle Plagne, accidents can happen on marked runs and in poor visibility. Proper cover matters in France, because mountain rescue and medical support can be charged directly to you.
Also, if you’re planning any off-piste after snowfall, risks can ramp up quickly. Make sure you’re covered for the kind of riding you’ll actually do. True Traveller offers exceptional cover, even in its standard packages.
