Plagne Montalbert red pistes
Montalbert red runs
Plagne Montalbert advanced pistes: The pistes down to Plagne Montalbert village through the trees are rather similar to the Montchavin pistes, but with one crucial difference – this area is by far the quietest in all of La Plagne so is a great place to head when the resort is busy or when there’s fresh snow. Fresh tracks are possible here longer plus the trees help break up snow and cloud.
Of particular note are the Bois Croizelin, Fornelet and Stade red pistes which, with a little creativity, can give you a red descent down almost the entire Montalbert sector. Check the iRide / LaPlagne360 YouTube channel for more info.

Heading for Montalbert reds? Get your gear sorted early
Quick tip: Montalbert is one of the best places in La Plagne for quieter red laps through the trees, especially when conditions are busy or snowy elsewhere. Booking ski or snowboard hire before you travel usually means cheaper prices online, better size availability and a much easier first morning once you arrive.
If you want to make the most of those quieter red runs, it helps to get your kit sorted before you even reach resort.

Fast red tree runs? Make sure you’re covered
Quick tip: Montalbert’s red pistes are quieter than many parts of La Plagne, but that doesn’t mean accidents are any less costly if something goes wrong. In France, rescue and evacuation costs can be charged to you even on marked runs, so it’s worth sorting proper cover before your trip.
Good ski insurance helps cover medical treatment, lift evacuation and cancellation if something goes wrong before or during your holiday.
