    Sustainability in Ski amadé

    Did you know that a 26 km drive in a mid-size car uses about the same amount of energy as a full day on the slopes?

    Alongside perfectly groomed pistes, exceptional cuisine and everything mountain sports lovers could wish for, Ski amadé is committed to living sustainability. We combine ecological, social and economic responsibility — and that only works when everyone gets involved. Together with our guests, partners and employees, we want to preserve the beauty of our mountain landscape and keep it accessible for future generations.
