Sunset 2700m descent !
When the ski day comes to an end and the mountain returns to silence, another experience begins. Designed for confident skiers, this adventure is for those seeking a moment apart, far from the bustle of the slopes.

Then comes the descent. Bathed in the golden light of the setting sun, the landscape slowly transforms, the resort settles into calm, and that unique sensation of gliding through the quiet evening makes the experience truly unforgettable.
