In the heart of the High Fens , Ovifat is one of the few places in Belgium where you can enjoy downhill skiing in an exceptional natural setting . As soon as the first snow falls, skiers of all levels flock to the three slopes located on the edge of the village.

The blue and green runs are ideal for beginners to gain confidence on skis, while the red run offers an extra challenge for more experienced skiers . For those looking for a gentler activity, a marked toboggan run awaits, perfect for families with children . All necessary equipment can be rented on site , and ample parking is available right next to the slopes.

At the top of the resort, you can enjoy a delicious break at the Brasserie d'Altitude , with breathtaking views of the snow-covered slopes. Even outside the winter season, the region is well worth a visit: its hiking trails , panoramic views , and the Hautes Fagnes nature reserve make Ovifat a pleasant destination year-round. Whether you come for skiing , sledding , or simply to explore nature , you'll find activities , relaxation , and exceptional scenery in every season.
