Altitude, access and value

Vertical range, lift access and terrain value.

High-alpine resilienceStrong vertical rangeStrong terrain valueBelow-average snow rating
Altitude resilience The high-alpine top elevation is a structural advantage for retaining colder snow, although exposure can increase wind and visibility sensitivity. The 1611 m vertical range also creates meaningful temperature and snow-quality differences from valley to summit.
Lift infrastructure About 4.8 slope km per lift indicates a broadly balanced lift-to-terrain ratio. Published hourly capacity is 41,442 persons, about 1658 persons/hour per lift and 345 per slope kilometre. The lift system totals 31.8 km, averaging about 1.3 km of lift line per lift.
