The ski resort is sheltered from the north winds and enjoys lots of sunshine. The runs are served by four lift facilities that go up to an altitude of 2250 m, and three magic carpets serving the ski school located within the Winter Park. This superbly equipped facility includes several snow tubing tracks, snakegliss and zibob, inflatable, a trampoline, Rotocubo play equipment, climbing structures and various equipment with slides and swings.
For snowboarders there is an area with jumps and rails and a beginners’ zone. To reach the ski area you can take the eight-person gondola lift that leaves from the village and arrives in Chantorné (1868 m).

The Torgnon cross country tracks go in two directions: towards the middle Valtournenche (Grandes Montagnes) and towards the south, in the direction of Col des Bornes (La Maisonnette).
The Grandes Montagnes run climbs steeply up towards the alpine skiing slopes and runs around the hillside on the western side of the Valtournenche. The view is dominated by the splendid mountain chain that stretches from the Roisette and the pyramid-shaped Grand Tournalin on to Mount Zerbion. The trail becomes a little more challenging towards the end, but your efforts will be rewarded by the marvellous view of the Matterhorn.
The Maisonnettes trail runs through thick conifer wood. The first part (a 3 km loop) runs around the ski school, stretching towards the lower part of the downhill slopes, with attractive descents on wide-open slopes.
The 5-7.5-10 km loops climb up towards Col des Bornes and the runs in the municipality of Verrayes on to the watershed with the Dora Baltea valley, allowing cross-country skiers to admire splendid, wide-ranging views over the central valley.
Showers and changing rooms at the Foyer de fond.
