Altitude, access and value

Vertical range, lift access and terrain value.

Useful upper altitudeStrong vertical rangeStrong terrain valueBelow-average snow rating
Altitude resilience The upper mountain has a useful altitude advantage in warm or marginal snow periods. The 1520 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 89,163 persons, about 1311 persons/hour per lift and 324 per slope kilometre. The lift system totals 48.8 km, averaging about 0.7 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 (58%), while a substantial 42% lies above 2,000 m. No mapped terrain is below 1,000 m, reducing exposure to the most vulnerable low-elevation snow conditions while retaining a meaningful colder upper-mountain share.

Slope angle

Share of mapped terrain by slope-angle class.

Around 21% of mapped terrain is in a steeper class and 79% is moderate or gentler. Strong intermediate to advanced skiers have substantial technical options, while expert-level ability is mainly relevant on selected sectors. Very or extremely steep terrain accounts for 5%, compared with 16% in the bit-steep and steep bands, so expert judgement is relevant on a meaningful subset of the technical terrain.

Orientation

Aspect distribution and its likely influence on sun and snow retention.
