Malgovert Forest Map

A rolling line through the Malgovert Forest, crossing the Malgovert piste as the trees thicken. You can extend the line by staying further skiers right for longer but you'll end up pushing or walking back to Les Arcs. To ski laps of this fun, playful terrain you can rejoin the piste and get back on the lift to re-run the fun. There are lots of rocks and small drop offs, be careful particularly during early season or poor snow cover. The line faces north so the snow stays cold and fresh for a while after a dump of snow.
