The site has about 1.5 kilometers of floodlit downhill runs, modern lift facilities that include the world's first six-seat bubble-encased chairlift, and buses that haul the bored from one ski area to another. The snowfall here is usually guaranteed. There are four ski schools, one hundred and sixty kilometers of cross-country ski trails, toboggan runs, and ice-skating facilities.
