Fun Times in the French Alps (La Plagne & Les Arcs) 4K

  • Around October, last year(2022), my friends and I had already booked our usual February ski trip in the French Alps. It was a good thing to get everything out of the way and not leave anything for the last minute (we had done so the previous year and it was more stressful and more expensive). However, this put us in a state of permanent excitement and we just couldn't wait for the trip. So we watched a bunch of RUclips videos of people skiing and snowboarding in the resorts we were going to. I guess it was the next best thing. You can't compare that feeling of conquering the mountains to anything, but this is me trying to give back that next best thing. I hope that this video shows you at least half of the beauty of these wonderful resorts. Thank you, France!

    In your search for food you shot right past Mamas Kitchen - a pub with a built in kebab counter! I was in there nearly every day 😂

    Great video. Very professional. I went to Les Arcs Feb 2022 with a friend and loved it so much I am going again on 27Th December in three weeks, with my wife, two daughters, their boyfriends and my son! Found 2 air BnB apartments in Bourg st Maurice right next to the funicular which gets us to les arcs 1600 in 7 minutes. Worked out a lot cheaper.

      Sounds like a great idea! Thank you for your feedback and have fun!
      P.S. We were there also in Feb 2022, so at the same with you and your friend. Maybe we passed each other on the slopes :D

      Hi! No. We've only skied/snowboarded in Courmayeur(Alps) in Italy. Lovely place.
      Maybe soon in the Dolomites 🤞

    Salutare!! 🖖 Les Arcs or La Plagne for a beginner? Found a good place in Arc 1600. What do you think about that plac? Cheers!

    • @PostcardNinja
      @PostcardNinja  6 месяцев назад +1

      Salutare! Hello!
      I've been 4 times to these mountains and I've stayed 3 times in Les Arcs 1800 and 1 time in La Plagne(this time, in the video). It's all kinda interconnected, so you can pretty much get to all of the sloaps (provided that they're open) with different lifts and gondolas, but we tended to ski/snowboard more on our area of the mountain(ex. This year we skied more in La Plagne since that's where we had our accomodation)
      Both Les Arcs and La Plagne have sloaps for different levels.
      We've only went to Arc 1600 a couple of times I think, so I can't say much about it, but most of these resorts are pretty nice.

    The off piste part around minute 40, where exactly in La Plagne is that? I'v been there a few times and will actually return this season and can't really identify where it is :D

    • @PostcardNinja
      @PostcardNinja  6 месяцев назад +1

      I don't quite remember how we entered that area, but I think that the chalet I reach at the end of that run is "Le Chalet de Verdons Sud" (tho' I might be wrong, so don't take my word on that and triple check before you go anywhere that it is indeed safe)

    How much ‘ski time’ do you get each day? Heading to La Plagne in Feb 24, and curious of how much light you get. Read a few different things online

    • @PostcardNinja
      @PostcardNinja  7 месяцев назад

      Well we started the day early, trying to catch the first lift around 9 o'clock and we'd get ready to end the day at around 4 or 5 pm (I think). But it depends on the ski lift as some of them have different schedules and it also depends on the weather conditions.
      Being such a large area, you'd want to calculate your time around the ski lifts schedule so that you don't get stuck on the other side of the mountain.
      Here's a link to Les Arcs ski lifts schedule: en.lesarcs.com/our-packs-ski-passes
      I couldn't find one for La Plagne.

      Well I didn't rent, I brought my own board and equipment, so I don't really know, but I think there are plenty of places where you could rent.
