La Plagne is super easy to get around, with all of the free inter-village transport.

There's plenty going on in the various resorts, so it pays to know how to get around.

Driving around La Plagne

Whilst it’s tempting to drive between the villages, parking can be difficult during peak seasons and it’s not exactly ideal for the environment. If you do drive, carpool when possible and ensure your vehicle has winter tyres or chains between late November and early April.

Taxi

After the bus service stops, it's best to pre-book a taxi, to avoid a long wait, if not you could have a chilly walk home in the snow.

Biking around resort

Bikes aren’t recommended in winter, and in summer, the villages are small enough to explore on foot unless you're here specifically for road or mountain biking.

On foot

Spread over eleven villages, walking around each is easy enough. If you want to walk between the villages it will involve an uphill hike at some point, and we couldn't recommend it at night - use the free shuttles to travel between the resorts in both summer and winter.
