Are you looking for a resort where you may spend your next vacation in one of the numerous luxury catered chalets? La Plagne is famous for its high-altitude skiing, and it shares the Paradiski region with neighboring Les Arcs, which has over 425 kilometers of piste. Yet, for the truly luxury visitor, La Plagne provides much more than skiing, with a diverse choice of activities that rivals, if not surpasses, more well-known destinations such as Cortina or Gstaad.

We'll offer our picks for the most distinctive and exclusive activities to experience in La Plagne in this post.

Ziplining

Want to see the slopes from a different angle? How about from a height of 40 meters and at a rapid rate? The 'cascade' zip wire at La Plagne, which runs between Belle Plagne and Bellecôte, has nine wires and even a 9-meter leap. Try the Super Tyro zipline for a pure adrenaline rush, which whisks you down a 600-meter line at speeds of up to 90 km/h while providing breathtaking vistas of Mont Blanc.

Skijoring

Have you ever wished to mix the grandeur of equestrian sports with the thrills of the ski slope? Skikjring, or ski driving, is a classic Norwegian activity that anyone may attempt. Imagine being towed behind a horse on skis, similar to a snowy version of jet skiing! At La Plagne, you may embark on longer skijoring trips or partake in high-speed races after learning the ropes.

Bobsledding is an Olympic sport.

Bruno Mingeon, an Olympic and world champion bobsledder, provides personalized bobsledding adventures. He'll take you down the 1,500-meter track, which was designed for the 1992 Albertville Winter Olympics, at speeds of up to 130 kilometers per hour. This isn't for the faint of heart, but with Bruno at the helm, you'll be in good hands.

Spas

Do you need to unwind after a long day of skiing? The town features excellent spa and wellness facilities to let you fully relax and re-energize before hitting the slopes. Nordic baths, a salt grotto, a counter-current swimming lane, and several individual therapeutic rooms are available at the Deep Nature Spa. Saunas are available in several of the resort's catered chalets. Both the relaxation and adrenaline boxes are definitely checked at La Plagne.

E-biking

At La Plagne, this is one of the most futuristic and strange experiences to attempt. You may tour the resort on a snow e-bike, which is an electric bicycle with caterpillar tracks that allows it to ride over the snow at high speeds. It's a unique sensation to try this at twilight, with the falling snow highlighted by your headlights.

Racing at night

This is without a doubt our favorite. After the slopes have closed for the night, Superluge sleds may be raced down a 5-kilometer track by the light of helmet-mounted torches. Staff will greet you with warm mulled wine and hot chocolate when you reach the end of your spectacular 90-minute descent. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

There is so much to do here that you will be completely satisfied and exhausted when you return to your catered chalets. After a day of adrenaline-pumping action on or off the slopes, La Plagne's chalets are the ideal spot to unwind in luxury.
