Bergerie green piste: The Bergerie piste is a very short green run near the top station of the Champagny gondola in the main beginners’ area.
It’s the perfect gradient and length for La Plagne beginners to learn the basics before progressing onto slightly tougher runs like Eterlou or heading over towards the Rossa chair.

La Plagne beginner piste Bergerie: There’s a decent run-out area here too, which can make a big difference for nervous riders who want a bit of space at the end of the slope.
Another bonus is how simple it is to reset and go again. If you’re finished for the day (or just need a breather), you’ve got an easy ride home on the main Champagny gondola, plus a restaurant close by at the gondola top station.

Quick tip: Champagny is one of the most rewarding sectors in La Plagne, but it still makes sense to sort your equipment before you arrive. Booking online usually means better prices, better availability and a much smoother first morning once you get to resort.
Choose a shop close to your accommodation so collecting your gear is quick and easy before heading up the mountain.

Quick tip: Even straightforward pistes can change quickly with weather, visibility and traffic. Good cover means lift evacuation, medical help and rescue costs are handled if something goes wrong — which in the Alps can otherwise be expensive.
If you haven’t sorted cover yet, it’s worth doing before your trip.
