2013/2014 Updates
France’s only bobsleigh track
La Plagne boasts France’s only bobsleigh track and is one of only seven in Europe. Built for the Albertville Olympic Games in 1992, the track has since been developed for tourist descents and is the resort’s top après-ski activity. From mid-December to April, tourists can experience the thrill of descending at speeds between 50 and 75 miles/hr in one of three special machines, making La Plagne’s track one of just seven in the world to offer this possibility to the general public.
**Moguls and Ski Cross World Cup Finals **
A few weeks after the Olympic Games from March 19th to 23rd, 2014, the best international athletes, including the Olympic medal winners, will compete for the Moguls and Ski Cross World Cup finals at La Plagne’s stadium “Jean Luc Crétier,” renovated in 2012.
