La Plagne piste guide | Soleil piste | Grande Rochette / Plagne Soleil | Preview / Aperçu

FULL HD preview video of La Plagne's Soleil piste in the Grande Rochette / Plagne Villages / Plagne Soleil sector. Watch the Virtual Reality 360VR video at • Soleil piste | La Plag... . The very short Soleil blue is, aptly, located just next to Plagne Soleil and accessed via the Dou du Praz drag lift - again, just a short way outside the satellite. The run itself seems a little pointless as it’s too short to be of any real use and certainly isn’t a run you’d spend any time on.
However, the Dou du Praz is still a handy lift and can be used to reach two far more useful (and interesting) runs - the Dou du Praz blue which runs behind Plagne Soleil and the Bretelle Triuese piste which gives quick and easy access over into the Plagne Bellecôte / Belle Plagne sector. The Soleil piste was likely added as an afterthought as a way back to Plagne Soleil but, really, you wouldn’t want to spend any time on it (apart from after fresh snow as it’s one of the slowest, close areas to get tracked). Due to its rather isolated location, access to this piste is only from the Dou du Praz lift.

La Plagne is a French ski area in the Tarentaise (Isère) valley in the Savoie department of France. The resort joined with neighbouring Les Arcs in 2003, to form the massive Paradiski ski area. Paradiski is the third-largest ski area in the world behind Trois Vallées and Les Portes du Soleil.
La Plagne and Les Arcs lie in the centre of a huge skiing region contained in the Vanoise National Park. La Plagne is the most popular ski resort in the world with more than 2.5 million visitors a season. The ski area is best suited to advanced beginner / intermediate level - though there is a wealth of easily-accessible, very challenging off-piste (in particular, off the Bellecôte glacier). You need a guide to find and safely ride the out-of-bounds terrain in La Plagne.
La Plagne accommodation ranges from self-catering apartments (often in rather ugly buildings) up to luxury chalets and hotels. The resort itself is split into 11 different villages, each with its own distinct personality. Families are best advised to stay in the quieter, lower resorts of Champagny, Montalbert or Montchavin / Les Coches and, to a degree, Plagne 1800. Higher up options included Plagne Villages and Plagne Soleil - both very quiet at night - though there is still access to Plagne Centre.
Plagne Centre accommodation is mainly in hotels and apartments (with a few chalet options too). The nightlife in Centre is more varied with more options than any of the other satellite stations. Centre is linked to Aime 2000 by a small cable car which runs until around midnight - after which there is a bus. Aime 2000 itself is an ugly monstrosity built high above Centre. The views here to Mont Blanc are breathtaking - but the resort itself is limited in terms of nightlife.
Plagne Bellecôte features stark, ugly - but highly functional - apartment accommodation. Much like Centre, most facilities are contained within one main building. There are two nightclubs and one main bar (Spitting Feathers). For other nightlife, you should take the bus to Plagne Centre or the télécabine to Belle Plagne (open until midnight). Belle Plagne is the newest of the La Plagne resorts and features probably the best nightlife and biggest range of accommodation including chalets, apartments and hotels.
