Altitude
-
Share of mapped ski terrain by elevation band.
Most mapped terrain lies between 1,000 and 2,000 m. The 3% 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.
Around 28% of mapped terrain is in a steeper class and 72% 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 23% in the bit-steep and steep bands, so expert judgement is relevant on a meaningful subset of the technical terrain.
