Arosa for beginners

Beginners rating -
119
Perfect
The resort serves up solid offerings for those new to skiing. A handful of ski schools provide ample learning opportunities, particularly on Tschuggen’s beginner-friendly slopes. Just a heads-up, it can get crowded during peak times, but that's often the price of popularity.

Arosa for intermediates

Intermediates rating -
Intermediates
Perfect
Arosa is a playground for intermediate skiers and boarders. With mainly cruisy runs above the tree line, the skiing experience here is light and fun. The Hörnli area usually offers the best conditions, thanks to its shady character and north-facing slopes.

Arosa for advanced

Advanced skiers rating -
Experts
Perfect
Advanced skiers can find their groove here, but don't expect an overabundance of extreme runs. The 40km of ungroomed trails provide a solid off-piste experience, especially routes from the top of Weisshorn and Bruggerhorn, colloquially known as 'Freeride Mountain.'

Arosa for snowboarders

Snowboarders rating -
Boarders
Perfect
Boarders have plenty to be happy about, with accessible slopes and a noteworthy terrain park. The Tschuggen terrain park features a World Cup standard half-pipe spanning 150m, offering a chance to hone those freestyle skills.

Arosa for off-pistes

Off-pistes rating -
Fun
Perfect
Off-piste enthusiasts have the unique option of the ‘tour’ to Lenzerheide, accessible from the Hörnli lift. This takes you through the quaint resort of Tschiertschen, promising an off-the-beaten-track experience.

Arosa for families

Families rating -
Families
Perfect
Arosa is a family's dream come true. The 'Arosa Junior Club' keeps the little ones busy with activities beyond skiing and offers several discounts. Kid-friendly lift passes add another layer to the overall value.

Arosa apres-ski

Apres-ski rating -
Perfect
Fun
While not overly raucous, the après-ski vibe keeps things lively. Choices like Kuhbar on the mountain, or the Kitchen Club and Nuts Club in town, offer a good mix for winding down or revving up, your choice.
