Skiing in the Paradiski area

No stay in La Plagne would be complete without exploring the Paradiski domain, a true winter paradise and one of the largest ski areas in the world. Connecting La Plagne and Les Arcs via the spectacular Vanoise Express cable car, it offers over 400 kilometers of slopes suitable for all levels. Beginners appreciate the wide, snow-covered boulevards for gaining confidence, while advanced skiers can tackle more technical runs against breathtaking alpine backdrops.
