The resort operates within the protected Bükk National Park, maintaining a balance between recreational activities and environmental preservation requirements.
The location has nine ski lifts serving different difficulty levels with access to easy, intermediate, and advanced runs. Visitors should check weather conditions, as the elevation can influence snowfall patterns.
