2005 12 19 - Ovronnaz
19th December 2005
I’ve been meaning to go to Ovronnaz (pistemap) for ages and never actually been. It’s a small station in the Valais on the opposite side of the valley from Haute Nendaz situated high up above the vineyards. After about 10km of hairpins it feels pretty remote.

The weather started a little overcast and I was having some difficulty seeing with the flat light but it picked up and the skiing got easier. The skiing’s up and down through the tree line and really exceptionally good, one of the best runs being an unprepared black piste. The self service restuarant is pretty good as well and does a good plat du jour.
Some photo’s give a flavour and there’s a gallery.
