Cheers @boredsurfin, very interesting!
Great tip @Jonpim, I'll definitely be using that tip at Easter with the family. We're staying in Belle Plagne so can imagine we'll be doing that route quite a bit.

stefoy4me, we walked round it a couple of times this year, last time in July. Pretty fancy. Lovely looking pool.

LOL - neither of those options palatable
not fussed about open air.......is there one in Plagne Soleil ?

Try clicking on link . . .
(time passes)
Actually, just looked more carefully at the picture. Too small and quite confusing.
Not really that helpful.
Hopefully someone who knows more about Plagne Soleil will be along soon.

@stefoy4me, There is roadside car parking and some outdoor car parks around there (the blue patches on JonPims link) availability depends on when you are visiting if its February its a lottery to find a space. Be careful we were there one year and managed to park in a space that got no sunshine at all - the car was frozen. We moved it after we realised!

Hi everyone, I'm hoping for some tips for ski hire, we're staying in belle plagne (chalet du vallon) in January.
I've not been to belle plagne in quite a few years and was back when my main criteria was who had the biggest discount so looking for recommendations for better hire shops, or if they're all similar (in which case we're thinking either delivery from ski2000 as we have some sort of discount or using the skiset belle plagne III that we think is closest). Any insider knowledge appreciated!

The Edenski discount code for Ski a La Carte is not working. Any clues?

From La plagne this morning:
Reduced rate season pass!
It’ll soon be time to order. Be prepared: sales open on the 3rd November.
You could make the most of your pass with unlimited skiing on the opening weekend of the 10th and 11th December and be the first to leave your tracks on the ski area.
We are taking avantage of this email to announce you that we entirely redesigned our website. Be patient, it will be revealed on the 3rd November!

We found the website very clunky. It took us several goes to get the relevant pages to load. Bonne chance!

@boredsurfin, interesting, so basically all the way to the top? Is it to the same place as the Traverse chair lift ends?

stevew, no: more like the end of 1st ski traverse after getting off the Traverse chairlift

Re Online Ski Pass: Mrs Jonpim has phoned the skipass office (+33 4 79 09 68 1.
Got most helpful and friendly lady.
Yes, there were "technical problems". She apologised ths site was down. She hoped the site would be back up later today.
She added there was no cut off date for the price of the Season Pass. Seemed to impy there was no further reduction - so Edenski may no longer be any help.
And said the cheap price of the pass, despite more expensive electricity and increased worker wages, was due to "simplification" of the pricing.

Season Pass page now open.
All goes well until get to entering address, when Zip Code is declared invalid.
Seems to be no way round it.
Looks like another phone call to "helpful and friendly lady".

Interesting. Site did accept one of our older cards - not sure which year.
We got round Zip Code problem by entering La Plagne code in our UK address. Worked fine!
We sent email explaining all this, and got rapid reply:

I'm trying to buy a pair of 6 day passes for delivery to UK (we don't have existing cards to recharge). I also hit the invalid zip code error and emailed to ventes@ski-laplagne.com to see what they can suggest. I wouldn't mind using collect from the ski pass office if it was offered as an option.
I'll share any response I get. If anyone else finds a reliable solution please let me know.

@Jonpim, I emailed them and Tainah replied having sorted it all out! My card was 5 years old and required replacing, the postcode issue is being worked on but you can putt in 5 zeroes and it works.
@Nigel_SW, As above put in five zeroes in place of UK postcode
|

Glad you got your card sorted, boredsurfin.
Here also managed to sort Carte Neige (assuming Club des Sports de la Plagne will ratify) - always such a struggle.
Now we just need some snow - snow that stays.

Thanks @boredsurfin. I've put my order in now as recommended and squeezed my UK postcode on the end of City name.
This is a very long awaited return to skiing for us, first trip since 2008 (last time in LP was 2007), now it's all booked for February half term andcan't wait to get there!
