Start of the season: LAAX kicks off the 2022/23 winter season and has reason to celebrate with various awards

Laax, November 23, 2022. The cold temperatures and snowfall of the last few nights have made it possible: LAAX will kick off the 2022/23 winter season this coming weekend, November 26–27, 2022, with the opening of the Vorab glacier. However, it is not only the start of the season that is cause for celebration, but also the awards that LAAX has received at the World Ski Awards. The "World's Best Freestyle Resort" award goes to LAAX once again. The rocksresort can also boast the "World's Best Green Ski Hotel" award.

The time has come: the first turns can be made in the LAAX winter sports area. On Saturday, November 26, 2022, LAAX will kick off the 2022/23 winter season with the opening of the Vorab glacier. Winter sports enthusiasts will have access to slopes 32 and 33 on the Vorab glacier. The snowfall of the past few days promises fantastic conditions on perfectly groomed slopes. Freestylers can already look forward to a small snow park at Vorab. Preparations are also in full swing in other parts of the winter sports area so that guests can soon enjoy a wider range of activities on the mountain. Guests can indulge in culinary delights at the Vorab restaurant at 2570 m above sea level.

The glacier will be open daily from Saturday, November 26, 2022, weather permitting. The first ascent from Laax Murschetg is at 8:30 a.m., and the last descent is at 4:30 p.m. The current weather situation and operating hours will be communicated daily on the live page or via the INSIDE LAAX app. Lift tickets are available via the web shop, via the app, and on site at the mountain railway ticket office. Dynamic prices apply both offline and online. More information about weekend operations is available at laax.com.
