Forests are an essential part of a ski area
The mountain terrain is protected by forests
A strong, healthy and functional mountain forest plays a large role in protecting against such natural hazards as avalanches, landslides, wind damage and rock falls, making it crucial for a ski area in the Alpine region. Therefore, the creation and maintenance of a healthy forest receives very high priority from those of us at Snow Space Salzburg.
