Sectors: Glacier/Toura
Reached via the
Serre Pallas run, this fair red-grade piste accesses the lower two
Slide Zones plus a handy bypass around the flat central
Toura 2600 area.
There are two entrances: the first [highest] one links with the mid-station of the
Glaciers chairlift (42), although this provides no practical advantage, before descending steeply to merge with the second [lower] spur of the piste.
The
‘Cascades’ Slide Zone drops off to the skier's left, just at the point where these two spurs meet; the
‘Corniche’ Slide Zone is just a little further along the onward route of the
Brêche piste.
Continuing on the
Brêche, there is then a short steep spur off to the skier's left to join the
Jandri piste, providing a link to the chairlifts that serve the
Snowpark; alternatively, stay high and peel off to the skier's right for the
Gours Bis shortcut down to the
Gours run towards La Fée 2100; otherwise, the prime route of the
Brêche finishes directly ahead, on a good steep pitch overlooking Toura 2600.
To link with the major lift stations at the Toura 2600 sector interchange, and/or to retain sufficient momentum in order to reach the onward
Gours &
Grand Nord runs, swing high to the skier's right at the finish and schuss over the top of the tunnel behind the
Chalet de la Toura bar/restaurant.
