Runs down slope: is step ungainly? (6)
I believe the answer is:
pistes
'runs down slope' is the definition.
(runs on a ski slope)
'is step ungainly?' is the wordplay.
'ungainly?' indicates an anagram (I've seen 'ungainly' mean this).
'is'+'step'='isstep'
'isstep' anagrammed gives 'PISTES'.
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
