Far from the queues and the heat of the cities, Belle Plagne (La Plagne-Tarentaise, in Savoie) reveals itself in summer as a true jewel of the French Alps. Fresh air, panoramas over Mont-Blanc, flower-filled meadows and a vast open-air playground: the summer mountains offer families a rare backdrop where everyone finds their own rhythm. Here is an overview of more than 40 activities to build an unforgettable holiday, from the highest peaks to the rushing water.
Sport and wide-open spaces
La Plagne in summer is, first of all, a promise of movement. Lovers of thrills and the outdoors will find plenty of ways to let off steam:
- Mountain biking on the trails and downhill runs
- Hiking to the lakes and high pastures
- Trail running for runners chasing elevation
- Archery out in nature
- Horse riding through the meadows
- Climbing and via ferrata routes
Water adventures
When the sun warms up, the fast-flowing water of the Savoyard torrents becomes an exhilarating playground, supervised for the whole family:
- Rafting in white water
- Canyoning through the gorges
- Kayaking along the river
These activities, led by professionals, are practised according to age and level: a perfect way to introduce older children to the joys of the wild mountain waters.
Adrenaline and thrills
For hearts that love adrenaline, La Plagne holds its share of excitement:
- Zip lining above the valleys
- Quad biking on high-altitude tracks
- Escape games for quieter days
Nature and gentle family time
The mountains are also about rediscovering slowness: walking, observing, breathing. Family strolls to discover the local wildlife and flora, picnics facing the peaks and evenings out in the open air set the pace for a holiday where what matters most returns to its rightful place. After the effort, a moment of recovery at the [spa & wellness](/spa-bien-etre) area extends the escape.
Activities for children: what to offer the youngest?
Children are the kings of a summer in the mountains. Between the Kids Club open from 10:30 to 17:00, creative workshops, outdoor games and supervised discoveries, they live their own adventures while parents make the most of their time. Our [kids club](/mini-club) welcomes the youngest in a safe and joyful setting designed for them. Zip lines their size, an introduction to archery, playful walks: the mountain becomes a vast field of discovery suited to every age.
What to do in La Plagne when it rains?
At altitude the weather changes quickly, but boredom has no place here. On rainy days, head for the indoor activities: team escape games, cosy moments at the [spa & wellness](/spa-bien-etre) area, family board games and Kids Club workshops. It is also the perfect occasion to savour the warmth of the [hotel](/hotel), to read, rest and recharge before the next adventure.
