Spring skiing
La Plagne, located in the French Alps, is a popular winter skiing destination, but it also offers a pleasant springtime experience. Here's what you can expect when skiing at La Plagne in spring:
Snow conditions: In early spring, snow conditions at La Plagne can still be excellent, especially on slopes at higher altitudes. The ski area stretches from 1400m above sea level to the Bellecôte Glacier at 3200m. The snow tends to be softer and more melting during the day, which is ideal for spring skiing.
Temperatures: Spring temperatures in La Plagne are generally milder than in the colder winter months, but often remain cool enough to maintain good snow conditions on the slopes. Expect temperature variations throughout the day, with cool mornings and warmer afternoons. On top of this, the days are getting longer, so you can enjoy the mountains even more.
Attractive prices: Skiing in spring offers many advantages, not only in terms of weather conditions, but also in terms of your wallet. The number of people on the slopes is down, but so are the prices. Prices for accommodation and ski passes are very attractive. During the week of March 16 to 23, paradiski ski passes are at the same price as la plagne ski passes, and during the weeks of April 06 to 20, for every 2 paradiski adult ski passes purchased, 1 children's ski pass of the same type is offered, which is quite a saving. Add to this our Oxygène Immobilier discount of -15% on la plagne or paradiski packages.
Off-piste activities: In spring, La Plagne also offers plenty of opportunities for off-piste activities, such as ski touring or skiing on steeper terrain. The longer days and milder weather make these activities even more attractive. We also recommend trying out the Superderby luge or moonbike with Oxygène Ski. The sunset over the snow-covered mountains makes these activities all the more unforgettable.
Visitor numbers: La Plagne tends to be less crowded in spring than in the high winter season, which generally means less crowded pistes and shorter waiting times at the lifts. With the peak of the February school vacations behind us, there are far fewer skiers and snowboarders on the slopes, but that's not all... During the school vacations, there are a lot of traffic jams on the roads.
Special events: A number of special events take place in La Plagne in spring, such as :
