The ski resort has 100% snow-making capability and is therefore very snow reliable.
Worth knowing
- Artificial snow-making
100 % of the slopes have snow-making capabilities
- The valley run is always open when ski resort is open; without the valley run, ski operation is not possible.
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.
The ski resort is less than 5 minutes from the Inntal expressway and is located in the Wittberg district of Kramsach. There is a free parking lot right below the lifts.
