the Cretaz lifts serve a wide area of nursery slopes
leading down to the town centre. more slopes at Plan Maison. Further
progress leads to runs from Plateau Rosą. |
|
|
ideal choice for the advanced skier. long sweeping runs
with occasional moguls. try the Ventina, an 8km run from Plateau Rosą. |
|
|
5 black runs. the long black to Plan Torrette is
challenging, as is the Bardoneu mogul run. |
|
|
freeriders should head for the Cielo Alto area for
powder turns, or the Valtournenche 22km red run to wind down.
freestylers and beginners will enjoy the nearby snowpark open at
weekends and during Italian holidays. |
