Couloir de Pramain

A fantastic off-piste adventure through wild terrain, but with relatively easy access. The skiing is varied with a combination of open slopes at the top and spaced trees lower down. Never too hard, but this a big mountain environment, so make sure you are properly prepared and aware of the snow conditions and avalanche risk. Cut right from the Bellecote black piste as high as you can before it turns left into the Rochu bowl, and pick a traverse line across the wide slope towards an obvious ramp leading leftwards to the col in the ridge ahead. Once through the col bear left down the wide open couloir. As you approach the treeline bear left for a more open descending traverse to the bottom, or right for a longer finish through the open trees, both finishing on Le Dérochoir piste.
