Wide, long, steep, and very skiable, the "NNE des Courtes" is a major ski route, a grandiose line. However, be careful with the orientation: very early departure is required in spring, because the sun gets very hot from sunrise.

Description

The North East face of Les Courtes, a great classic of mountain skiing: 800 meters of face for an inclination of between 40° and 50°.

Who says face says space for skiing.

It is therefore not uncommon to be able to carve beautiful curves when the powder is there.

In short, a high-class route coveted by a large number of skiers.
