Avoriaz is a veteran freestyle destination and the first French ski resort to build a terrain park, way back in 1993. The Stash, at Les Lindarets, is its most famous feature. It is Avoriaz’s Burton-sponsored jib-fest of tree trunks and natural obstacles, with three routes that cut through the forest.
With very few drag lifts, beginners start easily and progress rapidly to the mini jumps and ride-on boxes in Parkway, and the airbag jump in La Chapelle, before moving on to the Stash’s runs or the Superpipe.
