“terrain, and it's welldesigned for learning progression. The longest run stretches 4 km, providing that satisfying top tobottom experience that builds confidence. During my morning laps, I watch ski school groups making steady progress on wide, consistent slopes without surprise, steep sections or awkward flat spots. The beginner areas connect logically to the lift system. No intimidating chairlift approaches or long traverses that can overwhelm new skiers. Kids under five”
