La Plagne FAQ

At La Plagne, we love the mountains all year round!

Winter is of course our main season, because from December to spring, the snow is always there. The magic of Christmas under the snowflakes, January's good resolutions on the slopes, February vacations with the family, or skiing under the spring sun... there's something for everyone. From mid-April, the low-altitude villages begin to close for a short, well-deserved break.

Spring takes over, with the mountains slowly waking up. Flowers replace the snow, animals make a comeback and a peaceful atmosphere settles in for those who come to enjoy the peace and quiet of nature.

Summer is full of outdoor adventures! Cycling, hiking, climbing, white-water rafting... all come together to recharge your batteries and enjoy unforgettable experiences.

Finally, autumn reveals a more secret, but just as magical side. The landscapes take on a thousand colors, and hiking becomes a truly timeless experience.

We're already waiting for you!

As soon as the first snowflakes fall, our teams mobilize to keep our roads passable.

However, to ensure your safety on Savoie's roads, it is essential to equip your vehicle with 4 3PMSF-certified winter tires, or with removable anti-skid devices (metal snow chains or snow socks) on at least two drive wheels.

Don't hesitate to follow our tips and tutorials for stress-free chain fitting.

Now that the road is over, all you have to do is find a place to park your car. Free, paid, covered or overhead parking lots...it couldn't be easier! Choose the right village and you'll get all the information you need about our parking facilities.

Of course, the car is the most common way to get around our villages, but isn't vacation all about relaxation and serenity?

If you don't want to get behind the wheel, take advantage of our local shuttles, buses and cab services.

If you're not afraid of change, we recommend... skiing! Downhill or cross-country skiing, snowboarding, yooning or any of our other equipment, you can reach our villages via the slopes. In summer, bicycles take the place of skis, allowing you to get around by road or on the slopes.

Glasses on, sun cream applied but wondering if the sun is on its way? Check the weather forecast for the next few days, the snow depth or even the avalanche risk on our dedicated page.
