Altitude, access and value

Vertical range, lift access and terrain value.

High-alpine resilienceStrong vertical range
Altitude resilience The high-alpine top elevation is a structural advantage for retaining colder snow, although exposure can increase wind and visibility sensitivity. The 1201 m vertical range also creates meaningful temperature and snow-quality differences from valley to summit.
Lift infrastructure About 3.8 slope km per lift indicates a broadly balanced lift-to-terrain ratio. Published hourly capacity is 14,810 persons, about 1346 persons/hour per lift and 353 per slope kilometre. The lift system totals 13.2 km, averaging about 1.2 km of lift line per lift.

Resort profile

What makes this resort different

High-altitude snow anchor

Mountain character

Schnalstaler Gletscher is best understood as a high-altitude snow anchor: altitude, upper-mountain terrain and snow-reliability evidence dominate the structural profile.

Top elevation 3,212 m

Snow-reliability 98/100

The trade-off

Trips where upper-mountain altitude and snow resilience matter most.

Exposure and high-alpine weather can still interrupt otherwise resilient snow conditions.
