No snow yet. Snow depth and the seven-day outlook appear once snow is on the ground or forecast.
A weather-model figure, worked out the same way for every ski area, and lower than what actually falls. Use it to compare ski areas, not against the resort’s own totals. How we measure →
We do not show a snow depth here. The weather model we use reports snow lying on the ground — it knows nothing about grooming or snowmaking, and it is not the base depth a ski area publishes. In Japan we can check our figures against 234 weather stations. Outside Japan there is nothing to check them against, so we do not print a number we have not verified.

Corno alle Scale, in Italy, runs from 1,421 m at the base to 1,940 m at the top. Its mapped area is about 2.5 km across, with 20 marked runs and 6 lifts (about 12 km of piste in all).
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 110 cm of snowfall a season, 2,236th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 148th in Italy. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2020/21 (242 cm), brought more than 4 times as much as the leanest, 2023/24 (57 cm). February is usually the snowiest month, with about 35 cm.
Modelled from weather data the same way at all 3,069 ski areas we cover. These are not the resort’s own published figures.
Within 50 km in a straight line. Ski areas in the same weather-model cell (about 30 km across) get the same figure.

Counted from the runs and lifts drawn on OpenStreetMap, within the boundary of the ski area. These are not the resort’s own published figures.
69% of the vertical on the runs descends to the north or east; plenty of the terrain faces the sun as well, so the lean is modest.

The most snow falls in February. March brings 62% of January’s snowfall. That is a steeper fall than the median for ski areas in Italy (116%): the snow here is concentrated early in the season. In amount, March brings 18 cm, less than the median of 48 cm.
Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 110 cm, and 8 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2023/24 with 57 cm; the biggest was 2020/21 with 242 cm (4.2 times as much). For 55% of the 177 ski areas in Italy the leanest winter was 2021/22; here it was a different one.
Snowfall each winter (December–March total). The dashed line is the average; the numbers mark the leanest and the biggest winter.

How Much Does Snowfall Change From One Winter to the Next? Country by CountryOver twelve winters, the typical Japanese ski area's best winter was 2.3 times its worst. In Italy and Chile it was 4.6 times, in New Zealand 4.2. Canada, Finland and Sweden come out steadier than Japan.
