Efficiency and precision: optimized slopes grooming and artificial snowmaking in Skigastein

Skigastein boasts a variety of top-class slopes – not least due to our efficient, resource-friendly snowmaking. We use GPS snow depth measurement to optimize our slope grooming and snow-making system because it enables us to see exactly where and when artificial snowmaking is necessary.

In addition, strategically placed snow fences shield the natural snow from wind erosion, reducing the need for further artificial snowmaking.

The results: perfectly groomed slopes with carefully optimized snowmaking. To achieve this, we rely on measures that enable the efficient use of water and electricity.
