Plagne Bellecôte piste Rhodos: Rhodos sits in the rabbit’s warren of pistes and unofficial routes near to (and under) the Colosses and Blanchets chairs. It’s one of those runs you’ll often ride without realising, because it’s genuinely hard to pin down exactly where it starts and ends.

Access is off the Trieuse blue piste — look to the right just after Trieuse passes under the Colosses chair. The route then crosses the lower sections of Leitchoums and Arolles before turning left towards Plagne Bellecôte. After fresh snow, this whole area is brilliant for easy off-piste options and little side features — you’ll often end up following tracks that have been ‘pisted’ by rider volume more than by the groomers.

La Plagne intermediate piste Rhodos: Think of Rhodos as a ‘choose-your-own-adventure’ blue in a high-use area. You’ll find sidehits, little drops (if you hunt for them) and some really nice, mellow tree riding nearby. The trade-off is that it can get busy — especially with ski schools moving through the same zone.

If you’re riding it for the first time, follow the general flow towards Bellecôte once you’ve crossed the lower sections of Arolles and Leitchoums — and keep your eyes peeled for tracks dipping off into the fun bits after snowfall.

Rhodos blue piste: A fun, feature-filled little zone with loads of playful terrain and easy off-piste options after snowfall — but it can be busy, and ski schools often pass through.
