First on the slopes, first to enjoy the resort.

With First Tracks, you access the ski area before anyone else. The lifts open just for you, in a peaceful atmosphere, far from the usual daytime bustle.
Guided by ski patrollers, you reach the summit while the resort is still asleep. Up there, the silence is striking. You take time to admire the snow-covered peaks, soak in the stillness, and sometimes witness a magical Alpine sunrise.

It’s a unique, almost intimate experience that reshapes your connection with the mountains. In La Plagne, making that first descent means giving yourself a special, authentic moment — between nature and glide.
Whether you're solo, with friends or family, this early morning activity is sure to be a true highlight of your stay.
