Hi there,
I am new to hear and was hoping for some advice.
I am staying in La Plagne and have a friend in Alpe du Huez. Having never been to the alps i do not know if it is accesible to board from one resort to the other or how long it would take to drive from one to another. Any advice would be great.
La Plagne to Alpe Du Huez

Welcome to J2ski :D La Plagne is in the Tarentaise, which is in the Savoie Region. Alpe D'Huez is in the Southern Alps, Grands Rousses range, around a couple of hours drive away minimum.
Unless you have a helicopter :D
You can snowboard to Les Arcs, which is linked :D
The two resorts are in different mountain ranges and different French Departments. The approximate link time is by using Autoroute. A map of France will give you the perspective you need to show that it's just not achieveable on snow*
La Plagne is in the Northern Alps and ADH is in the Southern Alps.
*Technically I suppose it might be possible you have full touring kit, a split board and an unlimited amount of time.

Negative on the helicopter!!!
How long roughly would it take to board there, i am pretty competent and dont mind racking up the miles? The more the better to be fair.
Thanks for your quick reply.
