Montchavin blue runs

The blue runs in the Montchavin sector are some of the best in all La Plagne

Plagne Montchavin intermediate pistes: Advancing beginner and early intermediate skiers and snowboarders will revel in the huge range of blue runs above Montchavin village, including the massive Mont Blanc blue piste which, at 7km long with a 1km drop, must be one of the longest intermediate pistes in the Alps.

Every lift in this sector will drop you at the top of a summit with multiple great blue routes – plus some tougher options – most of which meet at roughly the same point further down if you happen to be in a group of mixed ability that might appreciate the steeper red runs or black runs. Check the iRide / LaPlagne360 YouTube channel for more info.

SKI & SNOWBOARD HIRE

Riding long Montchavin blues? Book your hire before you travel

Save money online and avoid queues when you arrive.

Quick tip: Montchavin is a brilliant area for blue-run mileage, but it is much easier to make the most of it if your equipment is sorted before you arrive. Booking ski or snowboard hire in advance usually gets you cheaper online prices, better availability and a smoother first morning once you’re in resort.

If you’re planning long cruising laps on runs like Mont Blanc, getting the right kit ready ahead of time is well worth doing.

SKI INSURANCE

Cruising blue runs still needs proper cover

Mountain rescue and medical costs in France aren’t cheap.

Quick tip: Montchavin’s long blue pistes are brilliant for building confidence and covering plenty of ground, but accidents can still happen even on easier terrain. In France, rescue and evacuation costs can be charged to you, so it is worth sorting proper ski insurance before your trip.

Good cover helps with medical treatment, lift evacuation and cancellation if something goes wrong before or during your holiday.
