Plagne 1800
A pretty little self-contained village with good nightlife and affordable accommodation
Plagne 1800 is one of the prettiest villages in La Plagne, with traditional wooden chalets tucked into the bends of the mountain road. It has a friendly, laid-back feel with a good choice of affordable accommodation from self-catered apartments and chalets to family-run hotels.
The village is popular with families thanks to its small beginner area where lessons take place, while the Mélèzes and 1800 chairlifts link you easily to Plagne Centre and Aime 2000. Runs back into the village are a mix of wide blues and slightly steeper reds, with plenty of options to suit different levels. Nightlife here is relaxed but sociable, and with everything you need close at hand it makes a welcoming base without losing its charm.
