What are the best pistes in La Plagne?
Taking this route around La Plagne will show you the entire area – apart from the glacier (which is often closed anyway). In truth, the runs on the Bellecôte glacier aren’t that great anyway – plus it’s a hassle getting back – although access has now improved greatly with the construction of the new Bellecôte glacier gondola. However, sticking to this route, you’ll take in all the other main sectors letting you see the whole resort in a day.
