Vertical range, lift access and terrain value.
Altitude resilience
Snow reliability is likely to depend more strongly on aspect, weather cycles and snowmaking than on extreme altitude. The 1004 m vertical range also creates meaningful temperature and snow-quality differences from valley to summit.
Lift infrastructure
About 4.0 slope km per lift indicates a broadly balanced lift-to-terrain ratio. Published hourly capacity is 3,420 persons, about 684 persons/hour per lift and 171 per slope kilometre. The lift system totals 5.1 km, averaging about 1.0 km of lift line per lift.

Share of mapped ski terrain by elevation band.
Most mapped terrain lies between 1,000 and 2,000 m. The 1% share below 1,000 m is the most vulnerable to mild spells, rain and late-season snow loss, while it may also provide sheltered or tree-lined skiing where local terrain permits.

Slope angle
-
Share of mapped terrain by slope-angle class.
The combined steeper share is about 10%, leaving 90% as moderate or gentler terrain. Most of the ski area is broadly accessible, but advanced or expert experience is useful on selected sectors, particularly when surfaces are firm or visibility is poor.
