Sustainability in Ski amadé

Alongside perfectly groomed slopes, exceptional cuisine and a wide variety of mountain experiences, responsible interaction with the mountain environment also plays an important role in Ski amadé. Ecological, social and economic aspects are considered together. Across the five regions of Ski amadé, various measures are being implemented to use resources more efficiently, further develop local mobility and help preserve the alpine landscape for future generations to experience. These include ski bus services, electric ski buses in selected ski areas and initiatives by regional accommodation providers. Together with guests, partners and employees, Ski amadé is working to continue this development step by step.
