Snow Activities Ski area Skiing in "La Chapelle/Torgon"
We are pleased to offer three lift pass choices, which should offer plenty to suit all standards of skier and boarder.
The "La Chapelle/Torgon" pass The "La Chapelle/Torgon" pass provides access to all the lifts and pistes in the 3 local ski areas - the Cret-Beni and Braitaz ski areas in La Chapelle d'Abondance, and the pass is also valid for use throughout the Torgon ski area in Switzerland. The pass covers the shuttle bus service link between the village, Cret-Beni and Panthiaz/Braitaz, and gives access to 75 kms of prepared pistes and 22 lifts and tows, which is probably plenty for most beginners. 1/ Crêt-Béni ski area In the heart of La Chapelle d'Abondance, is a firm favourite with families and offers a great choice of tree lined pistes on the flanks of Mont de Grange. You will find a 6 seat express chairlift ready to speed you on your way, whilst our brand new snow cannon system helps ensure we can offer plenty of skiing even mother nature has held back. Beginners will find a choice of wide and gentle, green and blue pistes, some of which descend from the very top of the lift system right to the edge of the village. Meanwhile the red runs are steep enough to provide experienced skiers some real challenges. Whilst the snow park will be a firm favourite with Boarders with a range of natural bumps and artificial rails, pipes and other features to test your skills. 2/ Braitaz ski area Is perched high up on the opposite side of the valley. The village shuttle bus links to the Panthiaz car park where a telecabin awaits to speed you to tree lined slopes on the flanks of Mont Linleu. This area also links with the Torgon ski area in Switzerland, which is also covered by the "La Chapelle/Torgon" pass.
