About the area

Les Angles in the French Pyrenees offers about 36 km of pistes, split into 9 km green, 6 km blue, 15 km red and 4 km black. With 46% of the runs green or blue (17 km), four magic carpets and 13 short easy runs beside a lift base, it works well for first-timers and for families. Only 13% is black or freeride terrain and the longest vertical on a single run is 429 m, so strong experts will run out of challenge quickly, though the red network gives confident intermediates plenty to link up.

The ski area runs from 1,635 m to 2,357 m and is served by 21 lifts: one gondola, three chairlifts, nine drag lifts, four platters and four magic carpets. The gondola means small children can get up the mountain without loading a chairlift. The longest run measures 2,928 m.
