Levasset blue piste: Taken as a whole, Levasset is one of the longest blues in Paradiski – and it’s also one of La Plagne’s best intermediate runs.
The main line starts at the top of the Roche de Mio sector (2739m) and drops all the way down to the base of the Borseliers chair at around 2100m, covering roughly 7km along the way.

La Plagne intermediate piste Levasset: The lower section (Bas) starts near the Carella chair base station, traversing through some of the most astounding scenery in the area.
Aside from a couple of steeper pitches (there’s a notable one right at the start), there’s nothing here that should unduly challenge even the earliest intermediate rider. Most people will get down without issue and, if you do get into difficulty, you can always side-slip the tougher bits.
The run terminates at the foot of Borseliers where you have a couple of good options. You can ride Borseliers back up, then take the Rossa chair followed by Tome blue back down to Carella – which takes you all the way back up to Roche de Mio to lap the whole run again (highly recommended).
Or, if you want to keep the good times coming, you can carry straight on at the base and join Les Bois (previously graded red but now upgraded to black) down to Champagny-en-Vanoise at 1250m – a colossal vertical drop of 1489m.
You can see Levasset in full (plus Les Bois) in our See La Plagne in a day video.

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.
