Who made this?
Hi, I’m Jen – your ski-mum-next-door. I came to La Plagne “just for one season” back in 2006 and never left. I’ve spent nearly 20 years in the ski industry helping families book their holidays, and now I’m raising my three kids here in Plagne Centre. I answer hundreds of questions every winter from families planning their trip, and these guides are everything I tell them.
Everything in them comes from real life on this mountain and from recommendations in our La Plagne Fans Facebook group. No scare tactics, no overcomplicating. Just what actually helps you book with confidence.
