Dry slope
Nœux-les-Mines · Pas-de-Calais · France
Europe’s largest artificial dry ski slope, featuring a massive 350m descent dropping 110 vertical metres down a reclaimed coal mining terril in Pas-de-Calais.
Transforming a massive 110-metre coal spoil terril in Pas-de-Calais into Europe's largest artificial ski slope, Loisinord delivers 350 metres of uninterrupted descent with steep pitches reaching 28%. The hill closely simulates a demanding Alpine red run, using automated misting over synthetic bristles and dual teleski lifts to support competitive slalom drills, big air kickers, and year-round carve training.
