Slopes & Highlights in the Arosa Lenzerheide Ski Resort

With 225 kilometres of slopes, the Arosa Lenzerheide ski resort demonstrates just how varied a winter holiday can be: making the first tracks of the day on perfectly groomed slopes in the morning, gliding leisurely down sun-drenched slopes at midday, and enjoying a challenging run down to the valley in the afternoon – all in a single day.

• Dream runs with sweeping views: among the classics are the long runs down from the Weisshorn to Arosa or from the Parpaner Rothorn to Parpan. Here you’ll cover a lot of vertical distance in one go, whilst the Graubünden mountain landscape unfolds before you. Those who like it dynamic can carve wide turns on the red runs – whilst those who prefer to take it easy can take a more leisurely pace and focus entirely on the panoramic views and the feel of the snow.
• Snowparks, fun slopes & playful variety: Freestylers and anyone who likes to try something new are drawn to the Arosa Lenzerheide Snowpark: kickers, rails and boxes of various sizes offer suitable lines for beginners, intermediate skiers and experts alike. The offering is complemented by family areas and fun slopes, where even less experienced skiers and snowboarders can have fun tackling moguls, bends and small jumps.
• Early risers, night owls & special moments: Those who want to make the most of their day’s skiing can enjoy special experiences such as sunrise runs on slopes still free of other skiers – a highlight for anyone who loves to be the first to leave their tracks. At the other end of the day are the SnowNights in Lenzerheide: a floodlit slope, freshly groomed, with a cool evening breeze – perfect for a few fast-paced runs after dinner.
