Champagny pistes
Champagny piste guide
Champagny pistes: Sitting on the quieter, south-facing side of La Plagne, the Champagny sector offers long, scenic descents with a more relaxed feel than the main bowl. It’s a favourite with confident intermediates and advanced riders thanks to quick uplift, big vertical and easily accessed off-piste terrain. Two standout runs drop right down to Champagny-en-Vanoise itself — the red Mont de la Guerre and the steeper Les Bois — giving this area a real sense of journey.
You’ll also find some of La Plagne’s best views here, stretching across to the Trois Vallées with Courchevel and Méribel visible in the distance.

Champagny is all about big vertical, quieter pistes and getting the right gear
Quick tip: This is one of the best sectors in La Plagne for covering serious vertical without the same central-bowl feel, so it really pays to get comfortable, confidence-building gear from the start. Whether you are cruising the long runs back to the village or heading higher for steeper terrain and off-piste options, decent hire kit will make the whole area feel better.
Booking online before you arrive usually means better prices, better choice and much less faff on day one.

Big vertical, off-piste options and quieter sectors can still go wrong fast
Quick tip: Champagny is one of those sectors where people often ski hard because the terrain feels spacious and the off-piste options are so tempting. That is great for a full day out, but it also means proper insurance is worth sorting before you travel.
Good cover can help with mountain rescue, medical costs and the wider disruption if a fall or collision cuts your trip short.
