Since this category was introduced in 2016, LAAX has been the undisputed winner, which speaks for its diverse freestyle offering with five different snow parks and two halfpipes.

The "World's Best Green Ski Hotel" award went to the rocksresort for the sixth time. Built to Minergie standards, this ski-in ski-out hotel is committed to the conscious use of natural resources in line with LAAX's Greenstyle concept.

LAAX received another award from Skiresort.de. The ski resort was named the test winner in the "5-star ski resort" category. Skiresort.de is the world's largest test portal for ski resorts and has been presenting the coveted industry awards since 1998.
