Montalbert’s Plantés piste cuts across the hill and is accessed from either the Montalbert blue or an off-shoot of the Roclisse red piste. It is typical of the Montalbert blue runs in that it follows a winding pathway through the trees, perfect for bad weather days or after a fresh dump of snow (the snow in this area always remains untracked longer than in any other part of La Plagne meaning you can get some good, easily accessible La Plagne off-piste riding).

At its base, the Plantés piste joins the lower half of the Gentil blue which takes you back to just above Plagne Montalbert village via a long traverse above the steeper Stade and Fornelet red. As with other blues on this side, the Plantés piste is perfect for intermediate riders who will enjoy the sense of travel as they make their way along these tree pathways. Access is possible via the Grangette drag lift followed by a section of the Montalbert piste – or from the top of the main Montalbert gondola, again, following the winding pathways down.

Pros
  • Fun blue thru trees
  • Leads back to village
  • Great in bad weather
  • Great after fresh snow
  • Intermediates love it
Cons
  • Watch for other riders at the Fornelet crossing points
