Peyragudes
About the area
Peyragudes has about 43 km of marked pistes, and nearly half of it (21 km, 47%) is green or blue, so beginners and mixed-ability groups have plenty of room. There are 17 short easy runs right next to a lift base, plus 7 magic carpets for first turns, which is why it also works well for families with small children. Experts are less well served: only 6 km (14%) is black, and the biggest vertical on a single run is 559 m. Intermediates get the best of it, with 16 km of red.
The ski area runs from 1388 m to 2359 m and is served by 23 lifts: 1 gondola (no chairlift loading with small kids), 9 chairlifts, 5 platters and a drag lift. The longest single descent measures 2862 m.
