Location of the alpin ski area — Paradiski

Alpine ski area — Paradiski

Paradiski is the third largest linked ski area in France, offering a colossal 425 km of runs. Its uniqueness lies not in a single mountain but in the union of two world-renowned ski areas: La Plagne and Les Arcs. This connection is made possible by a technological feat: the Vanoise Express — a double-decker cable car spanning the Peisey valley. The Vanoise Express is the iconic link at the heart of the Paradiski concept — not a piste connection but an aerial crossing that connects the two slopes in a journey of just a few minutes, moving from one world to another and offering incomparable landscape and atmosphere diversity within a single ski day. Les Arcs is the high-altitude and performance slope, peaking at 3,226 m at the Aiguille Rouge summit, guaranteeing exceptional snowfall with 70% of its runs above 2,000 m. Its predominantly north-west facing aspect preserves quality snow, ideal for expert skiers on the Arc 2000 slopes or long descents to Villaroger. La Plagne offers an immense plateau of wide runs, often sunnier — particularly on its south-facing slope accessible via Champagny-en-Vanoise. Paradise for all-level skiers, families and those who enjoy chaining kilometres across varied runs from glaciers to forests. Village resort gateways to this immense ski area: Peisey-Vallandry — at the foot of the Vanoise Express, the true hub of the ski area with direct access to both giants and popular forest runs for families. Montchavin-Les Coches — a preserved-charm resort and excellent entry point, particularly for its forest runs ideal in bad weather and smooth links to La Plagne’s heart. Champagny-en-Vanoise — the southern gateway to La Plagne, allowing a peaceful stay while enjoying a quieter, very sunny sector with direct access to high-altitude runs.
