Happo Website
Happo-One, site of the Olympic downhill in 1998 and more frequently the Freeride World Tour has plenty for the intermediate and above rider to enjoy. Large parts of the mountain are unsuited to beginners although the Sakka and Panorama areas are the most forgiving to those starting out.
Long steep pistes, combined with tree runs and massive backcountry bowls makes Happo a great choice. Check out their website in English here.
