The slope preparation is very good.
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.

Detailed description of the ski resort
The ski resort Idre Fjäll, which consists of one mountain, is well opened by nearly all sides with lifts and is approx. 9 km from the village Idre. From the Center the high speed six person chair Winkellift with curve and mid station starts up to the summit. Wide runs from easy to advanced lead down to the valley on both sides of the lifts. Via a flat run you arrive at the 3 t-bars at the North side, which likewise open a dozen easy to advanced runs through forest aisles. To the East side, where further t-bars, a triple chair and a quad are located you can take either the transportation lift, a t-bar that connects the both sides of the flat summit range, or you can drive via an easy run to the East side. The runs are mostly advanced runs, e.g. as the Taevlingsbacken run, but thanks of the good grooming and width of the runs also no problem for not as advanced skiers or riders. Advanced will love the run Chocken, since this is the steepest run in the area and leads nearly perpendicularly from the summit to the valley. With a connecting t-bar you arrives then again back at the quad 4-Stolen East. A further t-bar connects the quad 4-Stolen East to the triple chair 3-Stolen East (in both directions), which is approx for instance for 200m apart. To go back to Idre Fjäll you can take either the connecting t-bar via the flat summit range, or you can ski or ride via the easy run Dalamas längste through the cottages and some tunnels down to the tunnel lifts. Here are four t-bars with direction to the Center, whereby only the middle both underrun the road and lead to the Center, the other two t-bars end before the road and open a large beginner area. Near the Center are also still some t-bars and learning lifts, which were established particularly for beginners. After skiing or riding a large sport-hall with swimming pool, game room, etc. invites you...
