“THE" classic freeride face at Brévent which offers numerous different routes of varying difficulty.
Where the Charles-Bozon piste heads right at some small cliffs at c.2450 metres, branch off left and follow bowls and ridges to an awkward step. Scuttle down this and head right. Side step up right and contour round on the North side past the entrance to Faux Col. Continue under a small summit to a flattening and then sidestep up east over a bump to the rocky entrance of the Hotel Face. Once at the top of the face, simply pick the best line - there are plenty of options, all leading to the piste below. You are in full view of the restaurant so make those turns good!
