 Poster: A snowHead
|
Does anyone know if there is a bus service from La Plagne centre to Montalbert? Am looking into a nanny for one of our trips and she is based in Plagne centre so want to know if this will be feasible or not. PLease don't suggest skiing as she is not that good apparently!
Anyone know where I can get any information on this? Cheers in advance.

Don't take as gospel but I seem to recollect reading somewhere (here perhaps) that the buses don't run to and from montalbert. If you look at the map on their website here http://www.la-plagne.com/en/aid=313.phtml (click the graphic to enlarge) it looks like any buses would have to drop down to the valley and come up the other side to montalbert.
If she took the telemetro across to aime then it looks like you can get to montalbert using 2 blue runs.. can't be that hard even for a nanny..

bertie bassett, Yes the route to Aime is probably the only option but the bus timetable is very sporadic. I am not sure the nanny is off the "nursery" slope yet - forgive the pun

I not sure about a bus between Plagne Centre and Montalbert. Never seen one and they are a long way apart. Maybe contact the tourist office and ask them, infos@la-plagne.com .
Skiing wise, if she is a beginner then probably not a great idea because it is a long way and is often icy low down. The easiest blue to Montalbert is basically just a track through the trees, very narrow in places with quite a drop off into the trees. There is also a horrible walk on this run which is a bit of a killer.

Mouth, There is a twice a week direct bus arranged by the Tourist office otherwise it's down to Aime and back up. You could always have a word with redrunmarcus www.snofox.co.uk or the guys that run www.Mountainheaven.co.uk

LaserStock, One of the Four blues running back to Montalbert has been widened to a minimum of 21ft for this coming season to allow a wide return pisted route should there be a major lift breakdown. All the major runs back are coverved by snowmaking, (the forperet section was covered with snowmaking for last season) in the last 4 years I have never known the blues to be icy, except once when we went down one section that was closed
