Any feedback for this resort?
We will have 2 non skiers with us who like to potter during the day - walking, swimming, shopping etc.

La Plagne is great for skiers but not sure how great it is for non skiers. There are a lot of mini villages all spread out. Quite a few with not much to do other than ski. There is a frequent free bus service between them all though - I wouldn't recommend walking between them since it's hilly, winding and not set up for pedestrians. I would go for Plagne Bellecote or Plagne Centre - the former has a swimming pool and an ice rink. The latter has shops and plenty bars and cafes at bottom of the piste and also the gondola to the top of Grande Rochettes. Not sure the cost of going up it without a ski pass but assume its possible and worth it for the view!

TBH, as an ex-skier (now disabled) who still loves the mountains, most resorts lack facilities for non-skiers - unless you're a millionaire type hitting Gucci in Gstaad Wink

I still love going but I'm happy reading and pottering by myself. Anyone wanting a bit more action might struggle.

If you are thinking of going this year you know there are no ski lifts allowed, right?
