Plagne Montalbert is superbly situated

Montalbert has its own delightful selection of tree lined slopes and yet within 20 minutes you can be in the heart of La Plagne with its huge range of skiing for all abilities. To enjoy the skiing of Les Arcs you can ski over the mountains to the Vanoise Express, a high speed cable car which links the two huge ski areas. This will take you approx 1 hour and 30 minutes depending upon ability. The total area boasts 425km of piste, unlimited off piste (please take a guide) two glaciers and 108 lifts with numerous mountain restaurants to explore.

Romantic surroundings

The area is surrounded by the wonderful natural beauty of the Vanoise National Park. Montalbert is also home to 35 husky dogs who can take you on sledge ride for an exhilarating trip through the snow. There are many lovely cleared mountain walking paths through the forests and 35 Kms of cross-country ski tracks. Further afield there are several old romantic Savoyard villages to explore such as Notre dame du Pre, Longefoy or Montvilliers, and across the valley the vineyards and villages of the Versant du Soliel.
