 Poster: A snowHead
|
|
I may be in a situation whereby I need to get from La Plagne to Arcs 2000 on the 24th of December. Does anyone know how easy it would be to arrange a taxi from one to the other and approximately how much it would cost? I see the estimated route time is 1hour15 minutes. I am also conscious it is Christmas Eve day and the 24th of December is quite a big deal in France. Any tips most welcome

@Mr Blue Sky, what time are you planning the journey? During the day it should be possible to get the bus to bourg st Maurice then get the funicular and navette to arc 2000.
I cannot see why you cannot get a taxi, but it will not cheep. I imagine about 150 euros.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

@johne Thanks for your reply. I’ve found out that I can get a shuttle organised by the place I will be staying at in Les Arcs from Bourg St Maurice for 50euros so I’ll probably go with that! Cheers.

Is there a bus from La Plagne to Bourg St Maurice? It might have a bus down to Aime, and then train (or different bus?) to Bourg.

You'll need to Register first of course.

I think it’s bus from Plagne to Aime La Plagne and then train to Bourg st Maurice. A bit of a kerfuffle when I think about it so may just need to opt for a taxi / shuttle straight from La Plagne to Les Arcs

Or you could just ski over, of course...

@Mr Blue Sky, aimed la plagne doesn't have a railway station. You may be looking at the navette between the la plagne villages.
The busses to and from bourg St marice may be scheduled to coincide with the trains, or may not. I doubt there will be much more info available until the autumn when people start planning their winter holidays.

@johnE, Aime-la-Plagne does have a station. It's the stop between Moutiers-Salins and Landry.

@sugarmoma666, The station is in the town of Aime in the valley.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Thanks everyone for the feedback. I think I’ll just be taking a taxi - skiing isn’t an option due to luggage.

johnE and sugarmoma666, it is confusing.
Aime and Aime-la-Plagne do get mixed up. It depends rather on how you write it.
Take Decathlon and Le Clerc.
Decathlon is at "Aime - La Plagne", while Le Clerc address is "73210 Aime-la-Plagne".
If you ask Google Maps for Aime la Plagne or Aime-la-Plagne it will take you to the town in the valley.
The station sign says "Aime", but the website states "Aime La Plagne": https://en.la-plagne.com/discover/practical/taxis-transports-car-parks/aime-la-plagne-train-station.
The skiing station is referred to as Plagne Aime 2000.
I am sure you can find many more confusions. Lots of room for a jolly good arguement.

You know it makes sense.

@Jonpim, It's getting a bit like Bourg St Maurice Les Arcs, or is it the other way around. I think I'm getting a bit long in the tooth and hadn't realised that Aime was trying to think of itself as la Plagne. And they don't even have a funicular to connect them. Next, I suppose, it will be Moutiers Courcheval.
