For families and beginners, the Lil' Stash provides a safe and fun introduction to freestyle. This smaller version of The Stash features treehouses, bridges, and gentle obstacles designed for children. Located in the heart of the Portes du Soleil ski area, The Stash is accessed via the Prolays chairlift. Halfway down the run, a hut offers a place to rest and enjoy a picnic. The Stash isn't just about riding; it subtly promotes environmental awareness, encouraging visitors to consider their impact on the environment.
