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.
