La Plagne Champagny expert pistes guide: There’s only one black piste to add to our Champagny black pistes guide for the Champagny sector of La Plagne above Champagny-en-Vanoise village – but that certainly doesn’t mean this area isn’t without challenges. Indeed, some of La Plagne’s best off-piste riding can be found here (if not some of the best in the whole of Paradiski). Get a guide and go off the beaten track to find the best options.
Better yet, the lift system in Champagny is one of the fastest and most efficient in La Plagne, meaning more time and skiing and snowboarding and less time sitting on lifts. Visit the iRide / LaPlagne360 YouTube channel for more info.

Quick tip: Unless you’re staying in Champagny village, getting to this sector will involve crossing other La Plagne areas. The wrong skis or board can make that hard work — especially if they’re badly sized or not fit for purpose.
Booking ski or snowboard hire in advance means the right kit is ready, sizes are available and you’ll benefit from cheaper online prices. Choose a shop near your accommodation so you can get straight out and start exploring more of La Plagne.

Quick tip: Even on marked pistes, accidents can (and sadly do) happen — especially when covering big distances or skiing unfamiliar terrain. In France, mountain rescue and evacuation can be charged directly to you.
Good ski insurance covers unforeseen issues if something goes wrong. If you haven’t arranged cover yet, it’s worth doing so before your trip.
