One resort, 10 villages :

6 High Altitude Villages at an altitude between 1800 and 2100 metres:
As a result of the development of winter sports in the 1960s the architecture of the high altitude villages is functional and varied. All villages have direct skiing access and are linked by a free bus network, enabling holidaymakers to have a completely pedestrian holiday.

Aime la Plagne (2100m): 360° panoramic view, a suprisingly modern architecture, the building is listed by the « Ministère de la Cultures » as an architectural monument of the XXth century, the friendly atmosphere, and a functional structure adapted to a disabled clientele, its ski school for the disabled « Antenne Handicap ».

4 villages at an altitude between 1250 and 1450 metres :
These family focused villages, have kept the authenticity, charm and friendly atmosphere of the traditional Savoyard mountain hamlets. The link with La Plagne ski area is guaranteed all season thanks to the artificial snow coverage.

Champagny en Vanoise (1250m): A village with an ancient heart and a well groomed architecture, a listed altarpiece at the Baroque Church, its nordic skiing area in the heart of the protected Champagny le Haut valley (one of the most beautiful in the Savoie region), ice climbing at the internationally recognised unique ice tower, the nearby Vanoise National Park.

Plagne-Montalbert (1350m): A sunny aspect, an architecture based on stone and wood, numerous free activities, its « new sensations » spirit, sleigh dogs expeditions, its family holiday villages.

Montchavin (1250m) and les Coches (1450m): The entrance to the Paradiski area, its old chalets and wooden farmhouses, its « Famille Plus » branding with its high standard infrastructure and multitude of activities for children, its indoor ice-skating rink.

A great resort for intermediates with lots of blue and red runs, the terrain and extent of the La Plagne area compares to the Espace Killy. There is also some challenging off piste and a few black runs. Many of the villages which make up La Plagne are purpose built - allowing for ski-in ski-out convenience.

Since Christmas 2003 the Vanoise Express cable-car has linked Les Arcs and La Plagne, creating the Paradiski area - billed as the largest ski area in the world.
