Where should you ski?

Keep the day around Prarion and Mélèzes. La Cha has a restaurant beside the lift area, so your group can pause without extending the ski journey.

Getting there. Prarion gondola → the signed La Cha blue → Mélèzes chair.

Before you go. A newer skier reported short steeper sections and a narrow, choppy chair approach. Read that account with the video before making this your first blue.

Golf lets you repeat one small part of a very large ski area. Stay in Aime 2000, or reach it by Télémétro from Plagne Centre.

Getting there. From Plagne Centre, take Télémétro to Plagne Aime 2000. At the snow front, follow the blue Golf signs downhill to the Golf chair. If you are already staying in Aime 2000, join the run from this village snow front.

Before you go. Golf is blue. Stade is the separate green learning area with a ski tow if you are still practising your first turns.

Choose one Solaise circuit, with Datcha as the chair back towards the village gondola. Keep the red Plan descent out of the finish.

Getting there. From the village snow front, take Solaise gondola. Follow blue Lac-Parc to the Glacier chair, then take the chair up and follow the blue Plan Milet signs.

Before you go. The Pim Pam Poum carpet area is the first-turn option. Plan Milet uses additional chairlifts and needs the right ski pass.

Wasserwendi is the operator’s blue 2 Slow-Slope. Repeat on the Männlichen chair, then ride the cable car back to Wengen.

Getting there. Wengen is car-free. Travel via Interlaken Ost and Lauterbrunnen, then take the train up to Wengen. If driving, park in Lauterbrunnen and continue by train. From Wengen, take the Männlichen cable car up. At the top, follow the blue 2 Wasserwendi signs to the bottom of the Männlichen chairlift.

Before you go. A Slow-Slope is still a mountain blue. Choose it once controlled turns feel familiar, and check the chair and cable-car closing times together.
