Here is a larger, more detailed map.

At 6,000 feet, Arosa’s lifts fan out to reach the two ma-jor peaks in the area, the 8,241-foot-high Hörnli and the Weisshorn, at 8,704 feet. Although there are only 13 lifts, their combined capacity exceeds 21,000 skiers an hour. With the entire resort above the trees and some 60 kilometers of long and spread-out runs, there’s plenty of wide-open skiing and perfect cruising.

Mountain rating
Arosa is Eden for beginners and intermediates because of its long, wide runs. When it hasn’t snowed for several days, and skiers have broken new trails be-tween the normally prepared runs, you can virtually ski across the entire mountain.

One run that does require an expert—sort of—is the descent from the top of the Weisshorn to the Carmennahütte. This very steep run is wide enough to allow a gutsy intermediate to traverse and make his way down the slope. It also offers expert-level practice on the steeps with plenty of room for error.

Arosa is in the midst of phenomenal off-piste (out-of-bounds) skiing. Get a guide and take the itinerary that links the top of Davos with Arosa or take the backcountry route from Arosa to Lenzerheide. These two resorts will soon (within the next two years) be connected by lifts, if politics play out as the Swiss expect.
