Plagne Aime 2000, it is the highest of the La Plagne villages, it has the best views of Mont Blanc and surrounding Tarentaise valley and is very much a ski in ski out resort. With a blue run linking it straight to Plagne Centre, a tree lined black run to Plagne 1800 and several reds, blues and blacks that take you through the picturesque tree lined runs down to the lower villages of La Roche and Plagne Montalbert, there is a run for all levels of skier and boarder.

Snow Record

With an average of 495cm snowfall each season over the last 5 years, and the average biggest dump of 47cm La Plagne is one of the most snow sure resorts in the Alps. If that wasn't enough, the Bellecote Glacier ensures that even in the event of a late snowfall or early end to the season just simply go higher, and you can find some great conditions.

The La Plagne ski area has an excellent snow record, with snow still falling as late as June in some seasons!
