Piste map of LAAX
The piste map of LAAX shows the vast interlinked ski area of Flims Laax Falera in Graubünden, with a total of 224 km of pistes served by 28 lifts. The map stretches from the village at 1 100 metres up towards the summit at 3 018 metres, where the terrain becomes steepest and most challenging for advanced skiers. Beginner slopes lie lower down near the lift from the village centre, while intermediate pistes dominate the large open fields in the middle of the map. One detail that stands out is how the three resorts of Flims, Laax and Falera are connected within a single lift system, meaning the map covers several valleys and sectors in one unified network of pistes and lift lines.

How to ski in LAAX
From the village centre in Laax at 1 100 metres, a lift takes you straight up to the open beginner fields, where the blue pistes have plenty of room to spread out. Families tend to stay in the lower parts of the system, close to the village, where the terrain is gentle and easy to take in before venturing higher up.
The higher you go, the steeper it gets. Towards the summit at 3 018 metres you will find the black sections, around 15 per cent of the piste map, with distinctly steeper flanks and narrower passages. The red pistes, roughly 30 per cent of the total piste length, spread out across the middle zone and link the calmer fields down in the valley with the more demanding terrain higher up.
What makes LAAX special is the connection between Flims, Laax and Falera into a single system of 224 kilometres of pistes and 28 lifts. This means you can ski for practically the whole day without covering the same run twice, and that you move between several valleys rather than a single mountain. If you plan your route, it is well worth starting in one sector in the morning and finishing the day in another.
A practical tip is that the lower parts near the village catch the most sun and therefore turn soft and heavy later in the day, while the snow quality holds up better higher towards the summit. Around midday, queues often build at the lifts linking the three resorts, so an early start pays off if you want to make the most of the full vertical drop between village and summit.
