All the team out Skiing on the beautiful new Bellasta pistes in Praz sur Arly for Gideon’s Birthday Ski Trip 2016
Boarders showing off – let’s see you on a drag lift! Only Sarah is observing the Notice
Heading to K-Bane after a hard day’s skiing. Someone forgot to turn their camera off. Watch out for that dog…
A snap from the balcony webcam at around 2.30pm today shows the first snow of the season falling in the town in Praz-sur-Arly. Good to see after such as mild autumn – just a couple of weeks ago and it was 18C and sunny for a whole week.
If the forecasts can be believe up to half a meter could come down this evening and a top up of 10cm later in the week.
The Summerfield/McLures early in the 2014/15 Ski season, skiing on the Combe Noire Piste past our apartment in the Chalet Le Chanteret (just behind the Large Chalet on the left) heading for the kid’s lesson at the bottom of the pistes.
Snow came just in time for the start of the season but is a bit thin. The weather, however, was perfect.
Our friends came back from Praz this season raving about a wonderful new restaurant up in the mountain with the most spectacular view. We understand it near the border of Praz and Notre Dame de Bellecombe but we’ve yet to formally place it. From reports of how busy it is, I wonder if they’re hinding on purpose.
On the latest ski map there does seem to be a restaurant just below the top of the Lac chairlift which could be it.
There’s a link to their blog here (but no map!)
Tragically the 34/24 season was K-Bane’s last, as the property has been removed to make way for major developments at the base of the pistes which may never happen. RIP you will be missed
K-Bane, pronounced “Cabin,” was one of the the most exciting additions to Praz when it opened a couple of years ago. Run by a Dutch couple and at the base of the pistes in Praz, replacing a basic shack, this funky restaurant is a great place to stop for lunch if your on the Praz side of the ski-area. But watch out it can get busy during the main holidays.
Their soup de maison is a favourite of ours but all the food is as good as the atmosphere and there are daily specials which often go down well with my crowd.
It’s also open during the summer season.
After a very mild Autumn it looks like the first snows of the season came down last night (and killed a fly).
