It takes you away from the hustle and bustle and provides you with cosy chalets, amazing views and a friendly, laid back vibe.

Skiing in La Plagne Montalbert
La Plagne Montalbert is one of 10 villages that make up the La Plagne ski area. Tree-lined runs hold the snow until very late in the season and the slopes are covered by a network of snow cannons, so runs all the way home are practically guaranteed. There is a fast Telecabine that takes you out of the village and a vast network of interconnecting chairlifts takes you to all the other villages in the La Plagne area and beyond to the Les Arcs area collectively known as Paradiski.
Christmas and New Year in Montalbert is a wonderful time with torch light skiing, firework displays and parties. On Christmas Eve they have a great street festival with Father Christmas being drawn on a sleigh surrounded by all the ski instructors with flaming torches and the old church in the centre of the village usually has a real nativity scene often featuring a real baby, donkey and other animals!
