The Kamikaze red is accessed from either Les Verdons (taking the Verdons blue) or from Grande Rochette on the Carina red. This run is most testing at the top where, in truth, it would likely be graded closer black in many other resorts. After this short, steep pitch the run mellows considerably before joining the Bozelet blue for a short section. Kamikaze is a wide open, motorway-style piste with a gradient perfect for laying out long, lazy carving turns. Laps are possible on this run thanks to the Verdons Sud chair and, due to La Plagne’s popularity with beginner / intermediate riders, it rarely gets busy.

We want to build a comprehensive guide to La Plagne’s pistes and lifts to help other users make the most of their holiday. Please only vote for this run if you have actually been down it.
