High-altitude ski area
Mont-Valaisan
Opened in December 2018 and located at an altitude of 2,800 m, the Mont-Valaisan sector is accessible via the Moulins and Mont-Valaisan chairlifts. It offers five red and black runs for advanced skiers, with panoramic views of Mont Blanc, the Matterhorn and the Vanoise glaciers.
A transceiver (DVA) check station is available at the summit to ensure that safety equipment is functioning properly before any off-piste outing.
Freeride in the Valais Alps
This black run, located at the top of the Moulins chairlift at an altitude of 2,400 m, offers 425 m of vertical drop. Ungroomed but marked and secured, it is the steepest run in the ski area, with a gradient of up to 74%!
From the top of the chairlift, access is via the red « 2800 » run, followed by the upper section of « Combe », before joining the « Freeride Mont-Valaisan ».
Warning: the couloir to the right of the Mont-Valaisan chairlift is an unsecured off-piste area. For your safety, make sure you are equipped with an avalanche transceiver (DVA), probe and shovel.
