Snowmaking on Kreischberg<\/h1>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
\n

How the snowmaking system works<\/h2>\n

Technical snow is the basis for optimum snow conditions in the ski area. Kreischberg has one of the most efficient snowmaking facilities in Austria. A snowmaking system essentially consists of three parts:<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Reservoir<\/h3>\n

The reservoir fills up over the summer months through natural inflow and precipitation. This means that no water has to be pumped up from the valley, and the location high up on the mountain also saves energy costs for snowmaking.<\/p>\n

Pumps\/ pipelines\/ hydrants<\/h3>\n

To distribute the water on the mountain, there are hydrants where snow guns can be connected with a hose. Hydrants are sometimes next to the slopes.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Snow guns<\/h3>\n

WWhen the water reaches the snow gun, the water is finely atomised and then either thrown out with the help of an air jet (\u201cclassic snow cannon\u201d), or the water droplets fall to the ground as with a snow lance. In both cases, the water droplets freeze as they move through the cold air. The finished technical snow is then ready for use and guarantees excellent slope conditions.
\nThe snowmaking system is computer-controlled, which means that snow production can be ideally coordinated with the weather conditions. However, technical snow production is only possible at sub-zero temperatures.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Piste grooming<\/h2>\n

The quality of snow production and slope grooming are the prerequisites for a perfect skiing experience.<\/p>\n

Kreischberg regularly receives the highest awards for this quality, for example as part of the \u201cInternational Ski Area Test\u201d or by the rating portal \u201cskiresort.de\u201d.<\/p>\n

In addition to the technical requirements, i.e. modern snowmaking equipment and piste bashers, a team of employees is needed who ensure perfect conditions and satisfied guests every day with a lot of experience, know-how and passion. And we are rightly proud of this team!<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
