What the sources say

Every note below is drawn from the resort's own or an independent official publication.

Skiable acreage (3,360) and lift count (12) agreed closely across two independent sources — high confidence.
No piste-km figure in kilometres could be found from any source reached — only trail count (140) and acreage are published; per the site's rule, no km figure was derived from acreage.
8% of runs are expert-graded (double-black-diamond equivalent) — no European "red" equivalent in this grading system.
