Future Plans for Les Carroz ski area

From 2007 to 2012: Development of the snow-making network
30 new snow cannons will augment the 60 already in operation in the Les Carroz ski area.   They will primarily be used on the Combe blue piste, ensuring an alternative route for returning to the village on skis, throughout the season, from the Gron sector.

Objective 2011: Enlargement of the Airon Lake
The Airon Lake, a reservoir used for snow-making and drinking water, as well as a tourist attraction in the summer, will be enlarged.  The plan is to double its current capacity to a total volume of 160,000 m3 to boost the water flow necessary for the snow cannons.
