About La Plagne
For further information on the resort of La Plagne, please visit the website www.la-plagne.com. You can check out the weather and even get a weather forecast e-mailed to you regularly. If that’s not enough you can see the snow conditions for yourself through the La Plagne webcams.

La Plagne is not just for skiing and the website highlights many other activities such as raquettes, swimming, ice skating, climbing (in and out door), paintball, gym, cinema etc. The site also helps with contact details for childminding and crèche facilities. We have reliable English speaking childminders that we use frequently and can recommend or book in for you advance.

For more information regarding the services at the Cyber Centre, call 00 33 479 55 19 22.

Skiing
Ski passes can be purchased on line in advance via the La Plagne website as well. Otherwise they can be purchased in resort. Note that proof of age will be asked for child and senior citizen passes. You can also purchase insurance (carre neige) at about 2.5 euros adult and 3 euros child per day.

The passes are electronic so make a note of your number as without it you can not obtain a replacement card if it is lost. It can also be recharged with extra days.

Ski/Snowboard Lessons
There are privately run ski schools that we can recommend which have excellent levels of English and can also help to organise equipment hire for you:
