Ski outA FreeRide favourite in the heart of Meribel Centre.
Incredibly easy access from the Lievre piste, simply follow the piste down to the treeline where the gondola deviates from the piste into the trees. It's always best to scope the line first by riding the gondola to see what you're committing to.

This is one of those lines that will get the legs working and the heart pumping, not least because you will want to put on a good show for those in the gondola overhead.
Due to its popularity, moguls form very quickly in this line which is part of the fun and a great test for any aspiring FreeRider.
There's something magical about FreeRiding in trees. This run is no exception to that rule.
