THE SNOWCROSS
These ungroomed slopes offer skiers and boarders all the sensations of free powder skiing, but in perfect safety. They are actually surveyed by ski patrollers, who ensure safety by artificially setting off avalanches and fencing off any dangerous areas. In Avoriaz there are 4 marked routes indicated by signposts :
• The Frontalière at the top of the Mossettes chairlift (1,150 metres long), a wide route down the mountain’s flanks.
• Brochaux (1,340 metres long), a naturally bumpy wall accessible by the Brochaux chairlift.
• The Combe des Marmottes (2,080 metres long), a playground that’s easy to get to, via the Fornet chairlift,
• The mythical Crozats run (3,122 metres long), a big wild comb which starts from the Hauts Forts and joins the world cup downhill run down to Prodains, from where you can return to Avoriaz either by chairlift or cable car.
• The Pschott consists of several successive natural canyons. This Snowcross is more technical than its neighboring Snowcross La Marmotte.
