However on the weekend of October 6th 2018 it was runners – not skiers – racing down its insanely-steep slopes, in the first-ever inov-8 Descent Race.
Starting from the ski gate at the top of the mountain, brave competitors from across Europe propelled themselves down the slope at 30-second intervals to the finish line 110 vertical metres below.
Between them and the end point were a series of red and blue ski flags, which runners slalomed their way through in two heats. Their times for each heat were added together to decide the final results.
