Nendaz / Plan du Fou-Fontaines
One of the steepest on-piste runs in the resort, Plan du Fou-Fontaines will be a challenging run for inexperienced skiers. The high gradient makes picking up speed very easy, but we’d suggest you make shorter or more completed turns to prevent any nasty accidents.
A worthwhile challenge when the snow is soft, but it can easily become hard packed in poor conditions. It leads onto Fontaines-Prarion, which essentially feels like the same run. The divide comes where the old Les Fontaines itinerary to the right of the piste (looking up mountain) re-joins the run, but this is no longer marked and should be considered as simply off-piste.
