Off-track skiing

As we are aware of the growing number of people who enjoy cross-country skiing, Chalmazel ski resort has a 3.68 km route, marked in purple on the map of the resort, where you can combine walking and skiing.

This permanent cross-country skiing route has been created in partnership with the Fédération Française de la Montagne et de l’Escalade (French Mountaineering and Climbing Federation), and starts with a trip through a wood, then heading out into the open with a view of the Alps mountain range, before you eventually get to the summit of the ski area.

Distance: 3.68 km

Difference in altitude: 500 m

It is accessible only when the Chalmazel ski resort is open. You come back down via the slopes.

Please ask the slopes department about snow and weather conditions before setting off.

You can ring the ski resort on 04 77 24 85 09.

Every year, on the last Saturday in January, the Comité Territorial Montagne Escalade Loire, Haute-Loire (Loire Regional Mountaineering and Climbing Committee, Haute-Loire) offers an introduction to cross-country skiing and can help you to learn how to make proper use of the DVA (Détection de Victime Avalanche - Avalanche Victim Detection - device).
