Altitude, access and value

Vertical range, lift access and terrain value.

Useful upper altitude
Altitude resilience The upper mountain has a useful altitude advantage in warm or marginal snow periods. The 936 m vertical range also creates meaningful temperature and snow-quality differences from valley to summit.
Lift infrastructure About 3.6 slope km per lift indicates a broadly balanced lift-to-terrain ratio. Published hourly capacity is 3,652 persons, about 609 persons/hour per lift and 170 per slope kilometre. The lift system totals 4.3 km, averaging about 0.7 km of lift line per lift.

Altitude

Share of mapped ski terrain by elevation band.

Most mapped terrain lies between 1,000 and 2,000 m (70%), while a substantial 30% lies above 2,000 m. No mapped terrain is below 1,000 m, reducing exposure to the most vulnerable low-elevation snow conditions while retaining a meaningful colder upper-mountain share.

Slope angle

Share of mapped terrain by slope-angle class.

Only about 4% is classified in steeper angle groups; roughly 96% is moderate or gentler. The mapped angle profile is predominantly non-technical, with limited need for expert-level technique.

Orientation

Aspect distribution and its likely influence on sun and snow retention.

West-facing terrain is prominent, increasing afternoon sun exposure. Surface quality may therefore change more noticeably later in the ski day.

What makes this resort different

Family progression base

Mountain character

Crevoux is best understood as a family progression base: easier terrain, moderate gradients and usable access make progression the strongest structural story.

57% blue pistes

96% moderate/gentler terrain

The trade-off

Progression-focused trips where easier and moderate terrain form a large part of the usable mountain.

Advanced skiers seeking a strongly technical profile may find the terrain mix less distinctive.
