beginners
****
gentle nursery runs. lots of blue and green runs across the resort. 
intermediates
*****
unbelievable range from the largest resort in Europe. challenging reds balance with easier blues. from exhilarating motorway skiing to quiet powder runs in the trees. Try the long run down to Champagny from La Grande Rochette. discover high altitude skiing on the Dôme de Bellecôte 
advanced 
****
try the runs between the trees down to the village of Les Coches, or the near vertical 2000m drop  of the Bellecôte glacier for 15km of skiing, with the aid of a mountain guide. why not also try the off-piste route to Les Arcs where a guide is essential. black runs suit the most advanced skier.
snowboarding
****
freeriders should go to Col du Lant or to the snowboard park at Plagne Soleil. There is terrain ideal for beginners.
