The signs and markings on the ski runs provide important information. They are there to maintain order and, above all,
guarantee the safety for all users.
Classifications of the slopes according to the level of difficulty:
The slopes are classified into four categories according to the technical level of difficulty:
Ski run markers green:
EASY SLOPE

Ski run markers blue:
INTERMEDIATE SLOPE (Intermediate skier)
Ski run markers red:
DIFFICULT SLOPE

Each slope has a name that allows you to locate yourself in the ski area.
The ski run markers are located on the sides of the slopes. Its color indicates the slopeʼs degree of difficulty. Each ski run
maker has the name of the slope, which makes it easier for us to locate the slope on the map, and they also have a
number. While skiing, we will see that the numbers are in descending order and this allows us to position ourselves and
know if we have a lot or a little left before reaching the end of the ski run.
