Welcome to La Plagne!
La Plagne weather forecast, La Plagne snow report:
| La Plagne, France is one of the largest ski and snowboarding areas in the world, it is a great ski resort for family ski holidays or for a mixed ability group skiing holiday. The Vanoise Express cable car links la Plagne to Les Arcs to form the combined ski area Paradiski. La Plagne opens for skiing this winter on Saturday 12 December. Ski holiday companies such as Ski Beat offer chalets in la Plagne throughout the ski season. For next ski season many of the larger ski chalet operators have cut the number of catered ski chalets on offer in la Plagne and across the Alps. This is likely to lead to a shortage of good ski holidays available particularly on peak dates. With the current economic climate make sure that you book your ski holiday with a fully bonded ski holiday company - do not simply rely on using your credit card. We are aware of a number of special offers currently being launched - these are mainly special deals on la Plagne lift passes, ski school and ski hire. As soon as we have further details we will post them on our offers and news pages.

There is no doubt that ours is not the most eco-friendly holiday activity, it would however be unrealistic to ask a skier or snowboarder to stop for this reason, equally we all want our holidays. To reduce the impact we have when skiing or boarding there are a few simple choices. Skiing in France is closest to the UK so going there minimises fuel emissions when travelling; a high altitude ski resort means less snow-making; to check out how La Plagne rates environmentally and what it is doing try Save Our Snow. Some tour operators are notably more environmentally friendly than others: ask about their eco policies.
