It's a piste that is not often prepared by a piste machine. Depending where you are in the world it can be the hardest (Europe) or second hardest to double black pistes (North America)

This only couts in skiing or snowboarding, but the term 'off piste' refers to the snow or area of the mountain which is not marked as an official slope or route in a ski resort. Therefore this could be deeper snow down a different course on a mountain which is not as popular and is not counted as a proper route.

How long is the longest ski run?

There actually seems to be several candidates to this title: 1) Vallée Blanche in Chamonix from Aiguille du Midi down to Chamonix. There are several different numbers given for this run between 20 and 22 km. The Chamonix home page claims 20 km. Note that this is not a piste, it's a commonly used off-piste route where a mountain guide should be used. 2) From Kleine Matterhorn to Zermatt. Ski-zermatt claims 13 km and zermatt home page claims 22 km. 3) The Sarenne run in Alpe d'Huez is often claimed as the longest piste. It's on the piste map (from the Alpe d'Huez home page) stated as 19 km but on the Alpe d'Huez home page itself it says 16 km so it's probably not the longest piste but it is the longest black piste, even though the last part of it is more transport than black.
