you can't get a bus ..the only way across is at Plan Veisey ...we managed to get from aime 2000 to Vilroger and back in a day ..just... but we did have a nice lunch in 1600 ...as I said the "explore Paradiski " pass gives you one day in Les Arc but in my opinion there is enough in La Plagne for 5 days

Hells, get the pass that gives you one day in Les Arcs, its very minimal in cost. One day there as an excursion is more than enough and easily accessible.
Skied: Arinsal, La Plagne, Alpe D'huez, Flaine, Les Arcs, Morzine, Les Gets, Avoriaz, Sauze, Courchevel, Val Thorens

Thanks, that sounds like a plan. Looking at the piste map today we both think La Plagne has more than enough for a week for us but we'd like to experience the VE and get to Les Arcs for a day so we'll get the pass that lets us do that.

Good plan Nelly.
I predict you will be glad you popped over, however briefly.
I think the skiing above Plan Peisey is just lovely!

Have to agree with OldAndy, not been there for many years, but I remember some fantastic runs down through the trees above where the VE now comes in :)

Not sure if you are interested, but I was looking for "large" piste maps earlier, and found this fantastic map for Les Arcs and La Plagne. You may want to have a look.

Large Piste Map

I am going to have to research the company that produced that and see where else they do maps for. Top quality.

Slightly off topic, and apologies for that, but not all of the maps are Kaliblue ones. Most are the traditional Frederique and Pierre Novat format. It seems Kaliblue are new to the scene and do their maps in a different way.

Website for buying lift passes was due to go live today (22/10) http://www.skipass-laplagne.com/

Not working yet. Rumoured that there should be discounts for booking before end October and they will post passes to UK free...

We'll see.
if I'm not skiing then I'm kayaking.
