Nendaz Intermediates
There are plenty of opportunities for intermediates to find good pistes for carving and to push themselves to the next level.The two main areas that intermediates will enjoy are the runs off the back of Ethérola, including a black run served by a new high-speed chair, and the many red and blue (and largely empty) motorway runs. Runs in Savolyeres, especially on the La Tzoumaz side, are also great fun for wide carving turns.
Nendaz
The main blue run into Nendaz, next to the Alpage chair, and the red run both give the skier lots of space for a proper blast. The snow on these runs is usually in excellent condition as they are on north-facing slopes.
La Tzoumaz
Ceour, from the top of La Tzoumaz bubble, is a lengthy red run with plenty of fun rollers – perfect for playing around practising your carving, switch and ollies. Watch out for the kids tobogganing at the side of the run though!
Thyon
The reds from the top of Cheminée and further down into Veyonnaz are fun and flighty. Check out the blue and red runs on the other side of the ridge towards the rustic villages of Les Masses and Les Collons as well.
Verbier
The Long Attelas red run from the top of the Funispace becomes a crowded motorway for those getting back into Verbier in the evening; but first thing in the day it offers some perfectly groomed wide corduroy pistes.
