The villages of Molines / Saint-Véran offer 19 kilometres of cross-country ski trails, groomed for skating and classic styles, between 1768m and 2744m altitude.

General DescriptionThe Laus cross country ski area, just above the village of Cervières offers a small domain of 25km of trails prepared for skating and classic skiing.

Ok it is well known that a number of mountain passes in Europe are suitable for late season nordic skiing or crust skiing as it is sometime called.

End of season crust skiing destination. Wait for a solid refreeze in spring or use wider nordic skis or snow shoes.

I knew there was a lack of snow. All the lower runs are shut. The skating was pretty good. A lot of people on foot, some stomping on the ski runs, doh! Not too many other skiers.

Spin round the trails of the Col de Porte, generally good skiing conditions. Last week's fresh snow has packed down and there are no bare patches, yet! As ever the black trail is closed.
