Aig. Grive - Col d'Entreporte 



Difficult
This is a great descent along the SW face of the Aiguille Grive. It is extremely varied since after the initial open slope a steep narrow gully is reached. Even though this is not an extreme descent, pay particular attention...

Col de Premov 



Difficult
This descent is both demanding and exposed and should be attempted only by excellent skiers. A rope, ice axe & screws may be useful if the north face is icy. Wait for ideal conditions in spring when the snow has...

Col du Génépi 



Difficult
This itinerary starts from the Col de Génépi, from where the Aiguille Rouges is reached before skiing down the entire NE face of this mountain. Even though the starting point is lower than those of the other itineraries described here,...

Col du Montets 



Medium
When there's no fresh snow left on the slopes near the lifts then head for Col du Montets. Although the approach takes 40-50 minutes, the view and isolation make the effort worthwhile.

Col Pers 



Medium
This is one of the mega classics and as a result extremely popular. Away from the main descent however, there are many interesting alternatives worth discovering.

Couloir en S 



Difficult
Couloir en S is the most difficult and demanding descent proposed in this small selection of itineraries. This gully stretches down the entire NE face of the Aig. Rouges and opens up onto the easier angled slopes of the Grand...

Le Grand Col 



Difficult
This is one of the most popular and spectacular itineraries, thanks to an easy ascent and breathtaking scenery. It crosses a large, isolated area and requires a substantial layer of snow.

Vallon de la Sache 



Difficult
This is a classic and justifiably popular descent. Eventhough it is close to the lifts it feels isolated and the snow is often excellent.

Vallon du Lou 



Medium
Vallon du Lou is certainly one of the most beautiful and easiest off-piste descents in the Trois Vallees. Located far away from the lifts, this offers a solitary decent down moderately angled slopes to reach the enchanting Lac de Lou...

Vallon Polset 



Very difficult the couloir variation, on the whole a difficult descent.
Vallon Polset is a beautiful descent, a long way away from the lifts, ideal for those searching for a complete and difficult descent with slopes up to 40°. After the brief ascent with climbing skins you need to carefully analyse...
