Overview

New to us this season, Chalet Orbite du Soleil is set in a collection of semi-detached chalets. This chalet is a wonderful, relaxed space for groups or couples alike. There’s a variety of bed configurations, private or en suite bathrooms and plenty of communal space in the living area, which is complete with open fireplace, comfy seating and flat-screen TV.

Description

Location

Belle Plagne At 2050m this chalet is located in the highest and yet one of the most central villages in La Plagne. Orbite du Soleil is south-facing, offering a bounty of balcony views and the access to the ski slopes of Belle Plagne is excellent. You can either ski down to the village centre, ski lifts, ski school meeting point, restaurants and shops or opt for the 300m (approx.) footpath route. Either way, the pedestrianised nature of the resort makes it easy to get from the chalet to anywhere local and the resort bus which stops just a couple minutes’ walk from the chalet will get you everywhere else you want to go in the collection of villages which make up La Plagne.

About La Plagne

La Plagne is a superb choice for families and anyone looking to build confidence on the slopes, with access to 425km of varied skiing in the Paradiski area. Beginners can progress from gentle nursery slopes to wide, scenic blue runs, including those from Grande Rochette back to Plagne Centre. More experienced skiers can enjoy longer reds towards Champagny-en-Vanoise, while those wanting to explore further can take the double-decker cable car over to Les Arcs for even more terrain.

The resort is made up of several linked villages, each with its own character. Plagne Centre is the original hub, while Plagne Soleil is the newest. Belle Plagne and Plagne 1800 are among the prettiest options, Plagne Villages sits right in the heart of the ski area, and Plagne Aime 2000 offers a quieter, family-friendly base. All villages provide a mix of accommodation, restaurants and easy access to the pistes.

Off the slopes, La Plagne offers plenty of unique experiences. You can race down France’s only Olympic bobsleigh track, take a ziplining adventure across the mountains, or visit the Bellecôte glacier’s ice grotto filled with intricate sculptures carved from snow and ice. For a more relaxed alternative with the same access to the Paradiski area, the nearby village of Montalbert offers a smaller, laid-back atmosphere while still connecting directly into the ski network.
