Plagne Centre best blue pistes

A selection of the best blue pistes in the Grand Rochette sector of La Plagne (Plagne Centre, Plagne Villages and Plagne Soleil).

The Grande Rochette sector of La Plagne has some very long, very wide blues that are ideal for blasting around and building confidence. This route takes in a selection of great intermediate pistes which are served by the high-speed Colorado and Bergerie chairs, the slower Boulevard chair and the Funiplagne gondola.

It’s worth noting, the top section of the Mira piste is quite steep for a blue run but it soon mellows to a much easier gradient. If you struggle with the top, just sideslip it as the rest of the run is a joy to ride. As for the other runs, they should be within the grasp of even early intermediate riders without issue.
