- Simon from Switzerland writes:
This is one of the best (and most secret) spot for freeriders in the Alps. Fantastic ski conditions, best snow around since it is high up and not too exposed to the sun. Generally steep slopes. In summary, great for serious skiers/snowboarders, not the best place if you want to tan.
