Weather and Man Made Snow in Zinal
On an annual basis, Zinal's average frozen precipitation is 600cm.
This natural weather-created snowfall is helped along with 77 snow guns or "cannons" on 30km of piste - that's over 40% of the total length of Zinal trails.
Off-piste snowboarding and sking is allowed and of course this has the secondary effect of reducing the wear and tear on snow condition on the pisted runs.

Top Tips:

In warmer spring months the best riding is on cooler and shady North facing slopes.
