Sunshine, freestyle and cross country

We have had beautiful weather this week in Chamonix and although the conditions on piste are pretty much perfect the slopes haven't been too busy.

At this time of year a popular destination is the freestyle park in Grand Montets. There are kickers and rails here as well as an airbag for training and an in built video system that automatically films your run. Sounds good? Well it is , the park at Grand Montets is better than it has ever been.

If any queue is too much queue for you though you can always try cross country skiing or take a sledge ride down the track in Plannards.
