Ski runs offering the chance to ski all day without ever repeating the same run twice, alternating easier runs with those of increasing difficulty.
Fun Facts
The story goes that Saint Theodulus crossed the Alps in the early Middle Ages to convert the inhabitants of what is, today, Switzerland, travelling through the Breuil valley (6500ft.) Legend has it that he stopped to rest in a stone hut in a larch wood at the foot of the Matterhorn before starting the long climb up to the pass at 11.482 ft. \which is known today as the Colle del Teodulo. Today, the Hotel Hermitage (the Hermitage of St. Theodulus) stands on the pleasant site where this little hut was once situated.
