Vertical range, lift access and terrain value.
Strong vertical rangeDense lift accessHigh published capacityStrong terrain value
Altitude resilience
Snow reliability is likely to depend more strongly on aspect, weather cycles and snowmaking than on extreme altitude. The 1200 m vertical range also creates meaningful temperature and snow-quality differences from valley to summit.
Lift infrastructure
About 3.2 slope km per lift indicates a relatively dense access network. Published hourly capacity is 110,323 persons, about 1902 persons/hour per lift and 587 per slope kilometre. The lift system totals 65.5 km, averaging about 1.1 km of lift line per lift.

Altitude
-
Share of mapped ski terrain by elevation band.
Most mapped terrain lies between 1,000 and 2,000 m. The 12% 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 18%, leaving 82% 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.

Aspect distribution and its likely influence on sun and snow retention.
East-facing terrain is prominent, favouring earlier sun and often firmer snow later in the day once direct morning exposure has passed.
