Sector: Arcalís Cirque » Link: La Coma Sector
The principal access lift, linking directly with the upper La Coma sector and giving access to the challenging black and reds that flow over the rocky cols back into the main Arcalís Cirque.
From the get-on point at the lower base station, the journey up has good views over the entire lower sector and the serious
La Portella d'Arcalís run high to the looker's right. Approaching the top, the lift passes through a cutting in the ridge into the upper La Coma snowbowl.
On Arrival: dismount to the right for all routes: U-turn down to the skier's right for the steep
La Portella d'Mig; or, stay high and go around the back of the little
Les Portelles snack bar to start the wide and gentle
La Balma, which also gives access to
La Portella d'Arcalís and the patrolled freeride zone; alternatively, simply traverse away from the lift and stay highest along the flat contour-line track ahead, passing above the nearby
La Coma chairlift arrival point, to access the start of
El Túnel,
Els Terragalls and the
ECOA.
