The resort already has an excellent snowpark in the Toura area, a kids park and a Slide area with gully, canyons and waterfalls. But for the winter of 2012-13, the freestyle area has been extended and adapted for families who want to learn and have fun. The new playground will include moguls, jumps, a mini-pipe and small handrails. It will be an area for all ages and levels to try tricks.
