AMAZING CATERED SKI CHALETS | LA PLAGNE 1800La Plagne 1800
WEsayThis may well be the most attractive of all the La Plagne villages, and it also provides a wealth of options for all levels of skier. It’s definitely a firm favourite of ours.
La Plagne 1800 Chalets
This former mining village is just perfect for family holidays and has long been a popular destination for winter sports enthusiasts from all over the globe. Its wonderful rustic charm gives it a unique flair that is difficult to find in other ski resorts – and definitely a contributing factor to its popularity.
Our properties here give access to the vast network of graded runs and off-piste skiing via the extensive lift system, and you’ll enjoy exceptional views across the valley from your accommodation in this high-altitude resort.
Beginners needn’t worry about training; the resort boasts several excellent schools, each home to qualified instructors with plenty of teaching experience. Skiers of any skill level are always welcomed.
A Wide Choice
We offer a huge range of accommodation in this resort. From affordable options in the main section to the wooded area’s luxury catered chalets, La Plagne 1800 has something for everyone.
The village is without doubt amongst the most picturesque locations in our portfolio, and many of the accommodation options are particularly suitable for holidaymakers travelling in groups. Whether you’re looking to enjoy the French Alps on a budget with a group of friends or splash out and indulge on a corporate trip, we are sure to have your ideal La Plagne chalet.
Nightlife
The nightlife in this resort includes the popular bar La Mine, which regularly plays host to live bands. However, if you enjoy staying up until the early hours of the morning and need a destination that will cater to your party-animal tendencies, unfortunately, you are looking at the wrong place!
A selection of charming restaurants and several additional bars is available in Plagne Centre, and free bus transfers are usually provided for visitors staying in our catered ski chalets.
La Plagne really is a fantastic resort for everyone!
WHAT'S new
New for 2017/18
The long, slow Crozats quad chair on the Montchavin side of L’Arpette will be replaced by a smart new six-seater transporting 3,600 people per hour. And new public toilets will be constructed at the top. The Plan Bois beginner area above Montchavin-Les Coches will be improved. The existing draglift will be replaced by a new moving carpet lift and a new draglift roughly 500m long will be built to allow beginners to reach the Lac Noir gondola and Plan Bois chairlift to ride back down. The beginner section will be fitted with more snowmaking.
New for 2016/17
A new 6-seater chair lift, Les Envers, is being constructed out of the valley between Le Fornelet, the low peak above Montalbert, and Plagne Aime 2000, further improving access from Montalbert to the central resort areas. This is more or less in the same place as the Coqs chair, removed some years ago. Presumably the lift co has realised that sending everyone down the tricky blue run to La Roche wasn t such a great idea after all. The runs on the glacier will no longer be groomed, increasing the area s appeal for adventurous skiers (and meaning these slopes can be opened more quickly after a dump). A family fun run will open at the top of the St Jacues blue piste, in the Bellec�te sector. Chauffe Marcel will open slopeside above 1800 sounds a bit like a Folie Douce ( best sound system in the Alps ). A steeper than usual zipline will open, descending from Plagne Aime 2000 to Plagne Centre; special braking system at the bottom it says here! Work will commence on a major development of Plagne Aime 2000, to include a 5-star hotel and an aqua-leisure centre.
New for 2015/16
A 10-person gondola replaced the two old lifts out of Montalbert, out on a limb at the western extremity of the ski area, greatly speeding access to Plagne Centre and the rest of the area.
