Paradiski
Paradiski links La Plagne and Les Arcs across the Ponturin Valley via the Vanoise Express, a double-decker cable car that opened in 2003. The combined area covers 425 km of pistes, 134 lifts, and 2,050 m of vertical from the 1,200 m base of Les Arcs to the 3,250 m Aiguille Rouge. Trail mix skews intermediate; expert-only terrain concentrates on the Aiguille Rouge and around La Plagne's Bellecôte glacier. Peisey-Vallandry sits under the cable car on the Les Arcs side and is the quietest base.
