| Over the past four years our trail enhancement project has transformed the mountain with the creation of loads of new intermediate groomed runs and widening of existing runs. If you haven’t been for a few years it really is a completely new mountain. Check out our interactive trail map to see for yourself. Go to Interactive Trial Map |
