Off Piste Routes
There is great potential for off-piste skiing in the forests especially on the Corencon side of the domain.
Le Pourton
This itinerary offers 700 meters of vertical with a slope of 30 to 35 degrees on an old ski piste. It is a favourite with ski instructors introducing their charges to off-piste skiing. The dangers are limited, unlike much of the plateau there are no cliffs or pot-holes. The route starts at the top of the Pourton lift.
