Biolley piste Jean-Luc Crétier
The Stade Jean-Luc Crétier (and Biolley piste Jean-Luc Crétier) is La Plagne’s official competition piste and starts high above Plagne Centre at the top of the Becoin chair. Unlike stade pistes in many other resorts, this is very much a straight-line affair with very little in the way of deviation or particularly testing terrain other than a couple of steeps followed by rollers.
La Plagne advanced piste Jean-Luc Crétier
The Jean-Luc Crétier has an official timing hut at the base and the run is floodlit (though bizarrely never seems open to the public at night).
This piste is often closed for local race training but, if it’s open, it’s worth doing – if only for the fact it’s great for laying out wide-open, arcing carved turns. Also the run has some of La Plagne’s best views. There are two slightly steep pitches near the top before the gradient lessens as the piste drops into Plagne Centre. Hit the rollers at speed and you’ll glide a very long way
