Intermediate skiers will find Prutz to be a suitable destination with a good mix of blue and red pistes. The resort offers a variety of terrains, including the popular red runs from the top of the Fiss-Ladis lift, which provide a thrilling descent. However, it's worth noting that the resort is relatively small, so while it offers a good selection for intermediate skiers, it may not provide the extensive variety found at larger resorts.
