As it’s not served directly by any lifts, the blue Champagny piste Tome run is very much a link piste used to drop riders back into the main network of lifts in the Roche de Mio / Plagne Bellecôte area from the Champagny sector. The run starts at a mellow angle through a natural gully (perfect for side hits) before veering left to reach a steeper end section.

This area can frequently get icy or scraped due to the amount of traffic it receives as most riders use Tome as a transit path back from doing the long Levasset piste route. At the bottom, you have options to go straight on and take the Quillis chair back to the Belle Plagne / Bellecôte sector – or head left and either take the Carella chair back up to Roche de Mio – or rejoin the lower half of the Levasset piste back to the foot of the Borseliers chair.

Always be mindful of the time when you’re in this area as, if you head down, you’ll need to complete a long run plus take two chairs to get back. Missing these lifts will prove a costly mistake if you have to take a taxi back from Champagny-en-Vanoise to La Plagne. As with many other parts of this resort (and many other resorts in this area), traveling between villages is much quicker on skis or snowboard – the journey by road takes much, much longer.

Pros
  • Enjoyable, short run
  • Sidehits
  • Links Champagny to main area by other lifts
Cons
  • Can get busy
  • People stopping at steep section
