    About Arosa Ski Resort

    Arosa is a fantastic choice for a ski holiday. This Swiss ski resort combines stunning mountain scenery with a relaxed and welcoming alpine atmosphere. Linked with Lenzerheide to create a ski area of around 225km of pistes, the resort offers plenty of variety for both short breaks and longer stays.

    Snow conditions are typically excellent throughout the winter in Arosa, while the surrounding forests, lakes and dramatic peaks give the resort a truly scenic and peaceful feel. The skiing is especially appealing for intermediates and families, with wide, beautifully groomed blue and red runs spread across the mountain. Beginners are also well looked after thanks to gentle learning areas and highly regarded ski schools, while stronger skiers can explore steeper descents and freeride terrain higher up the mountain.

    Efficient lifts and an easy-to-navigate layout make it simple to explore the wider ski area at a relaxed pace.

    Away from the slopes, Arosa delivers classic Swiss charm with cosy mountain restaurants, stylish hotels and a decent après-ski scene. Visitors can enjoy lakeside walks, wellness spas and welcoming bars after skiing, creating a more refined and relaxed atmosphere than some of the Alps’ busier resorts.

    Easily reached by scenic rail connections from Zurich via Chur, Arosa is the perfect ski holiday location for skiers looking for beautiful scenery, quality skiing and an authentic Swiss alpine escape.

    Ski School Included Offer

    Arosa Lenzerheide's "Ski School Included" offer gives children and young people up to 17 years old free group ski or snowboard lessons at either ABC Snowsports School Arosa or Swiss Ski and Snowboard School. For each night of your stay, the children receive one half-day lesson. Book your accommodation, pick up the voucher at reception, and present it to the ski school to redeem the lesson.

    Linked with neighbouring Lenzerheide, the Arosa ski area offers around 225km of pistes served by a modern lift network, creating one of the largest connected ski domains in Switzerland. The ski area is particularly appealing for intermediates and families, thanks to its wide, beautifully groomed blue and red runs. Beginners are also well catered for with gentle nursery slopes, excellent ski schools and progression-friendly terrain close to the village. The linked Arosa–Lenzerheide area makes it easy to explore at a relaxed pace, with plenty of mountain restaurants and scenic cruising routes that encourage full-day adventures across the domain. More advanced skiers can enjoy steeper black runs, freeride zones and quieter off-piste terrain, particularly after fresh snowfall.
