On the slopes of Bessans on November 16, 2024

As every year since 2018, the cross-country ski resort of Bessans is the first in France to open its slopes. The first tracks are available by means of snow-farming. The resort stored 16,000m3 of snow at the end of last winter under a thick layer of sawdust and spread it over the biathlon ring this week.

The slopes are open from November 1, 2024 at 8 a.m. for the pros and from 1 p.m. also for the general public. We see high level, beautiful technique and it’s nice to slide on the same slopes as the future world champions.
