Altitude
-
Share of mapped ski terrain by elevation band.
Most mapped terrain lies between 1,000 and 2,000 m. The 6% 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 16%, leaving 84% 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. Very or extremely steep terrain accounts for 5%, compared with 11% 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.
North-facing terrain is prominent, generally favouring colder snow retention and slower daytime softening. Sunnier aspects may still change more quickly during mild weather.
