What makes this resort different
Technical-terrain specialist
Mountain character
Fonna is best understood as a technical-terrain specialist: black pistes and steeper mapped terrain form an unusually strong part of the area profile.

Weather-sensitive
The trade-off
Strong skiers looking for a materially steeper and more technical terrain mix.
The defining strength is technical terrain; it is not automatically the strongest progression or easy-cruising choice.
