Vertical range, lift access and terrain value.
Lower-elevation sensitivityDense lift accessHigher terrain cost
Altitude resilience
Snow reliability is likely to depend more strongly on aspect, weather cycles and snowmaking than on extreme altitude.
Lift infrastructure
About 1.6 slope km per lift indicates a relatively dense access network. Published hourly capacity is 2,000 persons, about 667 persons/hour per lift and 426 per slope kilometre. The lift system totals 2.1 km, averaging about 0.7 km of lift line per lift.

What makes this resort different
Weather-sensitive lower mountain
Mountain character
Kiental is best understood as a weather-sensitive lower mountain: lower elevation and/or weaker snow-reliability evidence imply greater dependence on favourable weather cycles.
Top elevation 1,490 m
Snow-reliability 32/100
The trade-off
Trips chosen with a close eye on the current weather and snow cycle rather than structural snow resilience.
Lower elevation and/or weaker snow-reliability evidence increase dependence on favourable conditions.
