The Beauty and the double-black diamond Beast!
The Beast: the beastly trail boasts one of the steepest angles in the East: 65%! Rated double-black diamond, The Beast promises quite the chill to those on the lookout for thrilling experiences. To that effect, Mont-Sainte-Anne is renowned for its vast expert terrain: more than one thirds of its trails are veritable black and double-black diamonds. The famous La Crête trail has been many times over been named the perfect run thanks to its challenge and impressive view. The great Black Forest is a trio of steep wooded runs which are, legend has it, haunted by the ghost of a German baron. And let’s not forget the evil twins, The S and The Super S – two top to bottom double-black diamond runs well-knowned from the locals.
Mont-Sainte-Anne' Black Forest... Do you know the legend?
A triple challenge
The zone is comprised of 3 runs, spread over a width of 250 m, at the top of the south-western edge of the mountain, between the beginning of La Crête and the Bellevue curve. With an average length of 760 m, the 3 new runs will bring skiers and riders to a junction at the bottom of La Crête and L’Espoir. This area will be serviced by a triple chair "La Trip" and the “Etoile Filante” gondola.
Triumph, a double black diamond trail, is certainly the most difficult run of the zone. Skiers have a triumphant feeling at the bottom, having overcome its frightening woodland over its 300 m of vertical drop.
Munster, inspired by the name of the famous German cathedral in the Black Forest, as well as Schnell, a German word which evokes speed, became black diamond trails, offering intrepid challenges to experts.
