The large car park is free and from here you can take the 10 man telecabin up to Les Linderets to the beginner’s slopes. You can continue to Avoriaz, which features spectacular snowboard parks, tree lined pistes that meander through dramatic cliffs; excellent skiing and boarding in all directions including the Swiss resorts of Les Crosets and Champery.
