La Plagne - Courchevel...?

Off to La Plagne soon. Snow reports seem to be better for Courchevel at the
moment. Anyone know how easy it is to get between resorts?

TIA.

It is about a 45 minutes to 1 hour drive. By road you have to go right
down to the Isere valley then back up again. If you don't have a car
then I suppose skiing down to Champagny then getting a taxi from Bozel
to take you to Le Praz is a possibility. On the busses it may take a
very long time depending upon the conections to and from Moutiers.

I doubt if the snow conditions are really that different to warrent the
journey on its own, but if you fancy an expedition and a change of scene
then it may be worth it.

Thanks for that. Further than I thought. Probably stick to La Plagne.

Cheers, AD.

Stick with La Plagne - snow's generally good after the recent cold
snap and where it's variable there's little rhyme or reason to it -
more to do with weight of traffic really. More snow forecast over the
whole region next week so keep them fingers crossed.

Looks like it could do with some. All 6 fingers well and truly crossed.
