So if you want to play it safe, it’s best to go there extreme east of the country. Preparations to receive skiers are already in full swing on the ski slope in Ovifat.



The toboggan run and the green and blue ski slopes will be open on both Saturday and Sunday. There is parking and you can also rent skis there. A ski pass costs 30 euros, sledding a maximum of 5 euros. Brasserie Barra’ski on the slopes also opens its doors. You can go there for a snack or a hot drink.

Baraque Fraiture

The Baraque Fraiture toboggan run is already open. Today there is a layer of snow of 4 centimeters. It is not certain whether you will be able to ski there this weekend. Yesterday it was examined whether the small ski lift could possibly open (left slope, 200 meters green slope), but there is no progress for the time being.



“Yesterday’s positive temperatures affected the snow cover, but today the cold has returned. Sledding remains possible and so does walking, but not alpine skiing and cross-country skiing,” it said this morning. The Chalet de La Station is open for snacks and drinks.

Also on Signal de Botrange can you go sledding this weekend?

Snow in Flanders

We could also see snow in Flanders. “On Sunday there may be temporarily 0 to 1 centimeter of snow in Flanders and locally even 2 centimeters is possible,” he adds.

Now that the ski season has opened earlier than expected, where can you ski? And does it cost the same? (+)
