Avoriaz Snowcross Slopes- Legal Off Piste!

Legal Off Piste

The Avoriaz snowcross slopes offer skiers and snowboarders the thrill of off-piste powder skiing but without the extra risks involved.

These pistes are not groomed but are surveyed and kept safe by setting off avalanches and fencing off areas that are deemed too unsafe for the public.

The Combe des Marmottes (2,080m long) is a snow playground that is easily accessible by the Fornet chairlift. There is also the neighbouring slope called The Pschott, which is more technical with its successive natural canyons.

Brochaux (1,340m long) is a naturally bumpy wall that is accessible by the Brochaux chairlift.

The FrontaliƩre (1,150m) can be accessed from the top of the Mossettes chairlift and is a long and wide route down to the bottom.

The Crozats (3,122m long) starts from the Hauts Forts and joins up with the world cup downhill run into Prodains and is sometimes referred to as the ‘mythical’ Crozats run due to its wild nature.
