LAAX stretches 214 kilometres of piste across 55 runs, with 1,918 metres of vertical between the 3,018-metre Vorab summit and Flims at 1,100 metres. The grading leans gentle, at 40% beginner and 35% intermediate, leaving 20% advanced and 5% expert. Thirteen gondolas and two aerial trams do the heavy lifting, backed by five six-seat chairs, two quads, eight T-bars and five surface lifts. Around 8 metres of snow falls each year, and the glacier above Vorab keeps the upper slopes dependable. Strong intermediates get the best of it, linking Flims, Laax and Falera on long, flowing cruisers.

The marquee descent is La Siala, which runs from roughly 2,810 metres down to Flims, a drop of around 1,700 metres. Tougher options include the black Sattel run from Vorab and the Platt'Alva itinerary from Nagens, while the glacier steeps and marked freeride routes around Cassons give advanced skiers an off-piste step up. Racers get the FIS downhill course from Crap Sogn Gion to Laax-Murschetg. Crap Sogn Gion also anchors the freestyle scene, with a halfpipe and several parks. Snowboarders, freestylers and mixed-ability groups will suit it better than pure expert chasers.

The 2025-26 winter season operates 18 November 2025 to 12 April 2026, delivering 146 days of lift access. Early-season skiing typically begins on the Vorab Glacier before spreading resort-wide as natural snowfall accumulates. The resort historically opens weekends in November before full daily operations commence mid-December, closing in late April depending on conditions. LAAX ranks amongst Switzerland's most reliable areas for season length due to high elevation.

Annual snowfall averages between 445 and 720 centimetres depending on measurement location and methodology. The summit elevation at 3,018 metres accumulates average snow depths of 222 centimetres mid-season, peaking at 300 centimetres in March. Base elevation at 1,100 metres maintains 29 centimetres average depth, with 80 snow cannons covering 20 kilometres of lower runs. The high proportion of terrain above 2,000 metres ensures coverage even in lean winters. January typically delivers the snowiest weeks with 132 centimetres monthly accumulation.

January and February offer peak powder conditions with 3-4 snowy days per week, whilst March combines reliable depth with increasing sunshine averaging 21 sunny days monthly. December provides early-season value before holiday crowds, and April delivers spring conditions with soft afternoon snow. The Vorab Glacier maintains skiable snow into spring when lower sectors soften. The resort benefits from northern weather patterns that deliver snowfall when southern Swiss areas remain dry.

The LAAX OPEN draws international freestyle competitors each January, featuring FIS World Cup slopestyle and halfpipe events with night finals held Saturday evenings. Friday night skiing runs throughout winter on the Curnius run with floodlighting until 2115 hours, costing CHF 22 adults. Full moon descents with dinner operate select dates, departing Crap Sogn Gion after dark. The resort's freestyle calendar includes The Brits championships and regular park events, whilst the Freestyle Academy operates year-round for indoor training.
