Nevis Range have kept their biggest secret very quiet, so quiet that only a handful of people know about what the 'back bowls' have to offer and how to get in and out.
Opening up the Back Corrie with the Braveheart Chair has expanded the skiable area considerably, providing intermediate and experienced skiers/boarders with an off-piste expanse, unrivalled anywhere else in Scotland !
All the runs at Nevis Range face either North
or North-East and as much of the snow here comes on southerly
winds, it's easy to understand why the snow build up is so
good in the back. Its often excellent quality as the shelter
afforded by the main bulk of Aonach Mor lets the snow settle
without being to affected.
These great conditions can however pose avalanche risks, so we advise that you consult with Ski Patrol to verify the snow conditions and avalanche risks before attempting this challenging backcountry terrain. Entry points are marked on the piste map, so look out for the piste signage or call into the ski patrol hut at the top of the Summit lift for advice.
Skiing or boarding in the back corrie is an experience that we guarantee will equal many off-piste routes throughout the world. The immediacy of the mountains surrounding you makes this a unique Scottish experience with a
world-class feel !!
