La Plagne Montchavin / Les Coches village guide: When booking a holiday to La Plagne, it’s important to remember each station has its own personality – and this applies especially to the lower valley resorts like Montchavin and Les Coches.

Not long ago, these were traditional mountain villages so the pace of life down here is considerably less hectic. Also, these stations tend to be favoured by French property owners so night-time entertainment can be a little limited. Nonetheless, Montchavin offers some of the best riding in all of La Plagne – as well as very easy access over to Les Arcs via the Vanoise Express lift.

LA PLAGNE / PLAGNE MONTCHAVIN

Plagne Montchavin rated

Montchavin and Les Coches offer mostly apartment and chalet accommodation with all the facilities you could need but are also considerably quieter than the higher resorts. Also, at the start and end of the season, you should expect to be riding hard snow earlier in the day and much softer, sometimes slushy snow at the end. In recent years, cover has mostly been on artificial snow at the start the winter. All that said, the Montchavin sector features some of La Plagne’s fastest lifts so queues on this side are relatively rare. Also note – unlike the high Alpine stations, bus services are basic here so you’re rather limited in your options at night – unless you have a car. See the Montchavin pistes and Montchavin lifts or check the 3D map of La Plagne.
