Advanced skiing, freeriding (powder snow skiing) Rosa Khutor
Krasnaya Polyana already had a reputation as a freeriding Mecca before topics such as the Olympic Games were considered in Sochi. The heli-skiing service offered by a French company in the last millennium also had an influence on this. A part of the previous heli-skiing area is now located within the borders of Rosa Khutor. The Rosa Peak offers excellent off-piste terrain and even some of the prepared slopes are pretty challenging.
Information for advanced skiers, freeriders

Direttissima from the Rose Peak to the finish area of the Olympic racing slopes. The most challenging section is right at the beginning - a narrow chute between the cliffs.
General note: Always mind the avalanche warnings and barriers, please. Never ski into a closed and unsecured area.
