Altitude

Share of mapped ski terrain by elevation band.

The mapped terrain is concentrated between 1,000 and 2,000 m, with no terrain below 1,000 m. Snow conditions therefore depend mainly on mid-mountain exposure, weather cycles and snowmaking rather than on vulnerable valley-floor sectors.

Slope angle

Share of mapped terrain by slope-angle class.

Only about 6% is classified in steeper angle groups; roughly 94% is moderate or gentler. The mapped angle profile is predominantly non-technical, with limited need for expert-level technique.

Orientation

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

West-facing terrain is prominent, increasing afternoon sun exposure. Surface quality may therefore change more noticeably later in the ski day.

What makes this resort different

Balanced all-rounder

Mountain character

Mythen Stoos is best understood as a balanced all-rounder: no single structural trait dominates strongly enough to define the destination on its own.

45 km pistes

Top elevation 1,922 m

The trade-off

Mixed groups wanting a broad compromise rather than one dominant mountain speciality.

The balanced profile means fewer extreme structural strengths to anchor a very specific trip goal.
