Worth knowing
- No artificial snow-making
- The valley run is always open when ski resort is open; without the valley run, ski operation is not possible.
The slope preparation is satisfactory.
Tip: By new snow, an optimal slope prepartion is not always possible, even with a large effort. In addition, the new snow can not combine with the snow lying underneath and moguls are created quickly. For safety reasons, usually no slope preparation is possible during operating times.
