Stubai spreads 22 runs across 68 km of piste of terrain. It leans advanced at 35%, with 7 beginner runs to find your feet and 10 advanced or expert runs when you want to push.

The 2025-2026 season opened on 19 September 2025 and runs through 17 May 2026, delivering an eight-month operating window that ranks among the longest in the Alps. Glacier terrain and elevations exceeding 3,000 metres enable reliable early autumn and late spring skiing when most conventional resorts remain closed. The season typically begins in mid-to-late October depending on conditions, though early snowfall in autumn 2025 permitted operations from 3 October.

Annual snowfall averages 6-9 metres at glacier elevations, with historical maximums reaching 13.87 metres and minimums of 6.39 metres across recent seasons. The resort maintains snowmaking coverage on the lower valley runs, though the glacier's natural accumulation typically provides consistent base depths throughout winter. High-altitude, north-facing aspects preserve snow quality well into spring, whilst exposed ridgelines can experience significant wind transport affecting measured totals.

Peak powder conditions occur from December through February, when cold temperatures preserve snow quality and storm cycles deliver fresh accumulation. Spring skiing from March through May offers softer corn snow and warmer temperatures, with the glacier terrain receiving strong solar exposure at midday. October and early November provide autumn training conditions for professional athletes, whilst mid-November marks the beginning of regular public operations with fuller lift access.

The FIS Freeski World Cup Stubai, held annually in November at the Stubai Zoo snowpark, has hosted the slopestyle season opener for nine consecutive years. The INTERSPORT Testival runs in mid-November, with over 20 brands presenting new equipment for on-snow testing. The BIG Family programme runs throughout winter with weekly piste basher rides and children's activities at Gamsgarten.
