Estación esquí Javalambre
No snow yet. Snow depth and the seven-day outlook appear once snow is on the ground or forecast.

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.
Estación esquí Javalambre, in Spain, runs from 1,673 m at the base to 2,004 m at the top. Its mapped area is about 2.4 km across, with 18 marked runs and 9 lifts (about 8.4 km of piste in all).
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 56 cm of snowfall a season, 2,781st (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 34th in Spain. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2019/20 (109 cm), brought more than 13 times as much as the leanest, 2014/15 (8 cm). March is usually the snowiest month, with about 21 cm.
How much snow it gets
Modelled from weather data the same way at all 3,069 ski areas we cover. These are not the resort’s own published figures.
Compared with what is nearby
Within 50 km in a straight line. Ski areas in the same weather-model cell (about 30 km across) get the same figure.
| Ski area | Distance | Seasonal snowfall | World rank |

Runs and lifts
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.

Which way the slopes face
71% 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.

When it falls, and how winters differ
Month by month
The most snow falls in March. March brings as much as January, or more. In amount, March brings 21 cm, less than the median of 52 cm.
Winter by winter
Across the 12 winters measured, the average is 56 cm, and 6 of them fell short of it. The leanest was 2014/15 with 8 cm; the biggest was 2019/20 with 109 cm (13.6 times as much). For 38% of the 34 ski areas in Spain the leanest winter was 2015/16; 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.
