Ever since the link between Les Arcs and La Plagne opened several years ago, La Plagne has become more and more popular with British skiers. The new combined ski area makes up 425km of piste and over 140 ski lifts. La Plagne ski area is 225 km with a choice of 90 lifts. The ski range is between 1250m and 3250m.
