LiftRadarStatus of ski resorts
Open lifts and slopes, snow depth and avalanche danger for ski resorts across Europe, from the resorts' own reports.
LiftRadar is not an official source. Reports can be late or wrong, so check the resort's own website before you go.
How to read the numbers
- Updated twice a day, at about 08:40 and 13:40 Vienna time. “Checked” on the map and resort pages is when we last read a report; the resort's last change can be days older while nothing opens or closes, and is highlighted after 7 days.
- Ski areas spanning several villages (e.g. SkiWelt, Zillertal Arena, KitzSki, Snow Space Salzburg) are listed once; their snow depths are from the village that reported last.
- Closed resorts show nothing open and no snow depths: their reports often still carry last season's values. “No report” means the resort hasn't reported for 14 days, or we couldn't read its report for over 2 days (until then, a resort whose report couldn't be read keeps its last status and numbers). Trentino, Dolomiti Superski, Livigno, Ski Arlberg, PKL, Zieleniec, French (Lumiplan, ATEN), Czech and Finnish reports carry no report time, so their open/closed is always taken as current (Spanish resorts are open when a slope is, and Formigal-Panticosa only with a lift running too; Norwegian resorts are open when a slope is, while fnugg flags them open or their report is under 14 days old and a lift runs); (Finnish resorts without a live status of their own use the block they fill in on ski.fi, dated by the day); the Sauerland's overview (Wintersport-Arena) carries no report time either; French resorts count lifts and slopes scheduled to open later that day as open, and show “No report” while their slopes are outside the season. TMR's areas (Jasná, the High Tatras, Szczyrk), some other Polish ones, a few small Austrian ones the 13 Spanish ones we don't read yet (Baqueira Beret, which refuses automated clients, and others) and eight Norwegian ones (Tryvann, Kongsberg, Drammen ...) are listed with their size only for now, and most German areas outside the Sauerland without even that.
- Total slope km is the ski area's size: the one advertised by the resort, otherwise OnTheSnow's or skiresort.com's, and for sectors of a linked area (e.g. St. Anton, Verbier) the sum of the operator's slope lengths. For about 20 resorts without one, and the German ones, it's the sum of the slope lengths the resort reports, which can be too low.
- Open km are summed from slope lengths (the resort's slope map or infosnow, or OpenStreetMap for Kitzsteinhorn and Kaunertal, which runs low); lift and slope counts from slope maps include practice lifts and carpets.
- Most Swiss resorts don't report snow depths: theirs are measured at the nearest SLF stations (open ground, not pistes), so they can differ from what the resort would report. Finnish resorts' valley depth is the nearest FMI weather station's natural snow, not the depth on the slopes.
- Slope counts of SalzburgerLand and Trentino resorts are the area's size, not reported; Livigno shows lifts only. Most resorts in Vorarlberg, Styria, Upper and Lower Austria have only their slope map: lifts and slopes, no snow depth.
- Avalanche danger (Tirol, Switzerland, Italy, the French Alps and Pyrenees, Krkonoše and Jeseníky in Czechia, Jasná and the Slovak and Polish Tatras, the Bavarian Alps, the Norwegian mountain regions, the Spanish Pyrenees, Guadarrama and part of the Cantabrian range; not other Austrian states, the German uplands or Finland) is the highest level of the day in the resort's warning region.
