Åre, in Jämtland, Sweden, runs from 380 m at the base to 1,274 m at the top. The map shows 277 marked runs and 47 lifts (about 115 km of piste in all).
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 165 cm of snowfall a season, 1,470th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 13th in Sweden. Its winters are fairly steady; even the leanest, 2025/26 (115 cm), reached 70% of the average. March still brings 43 cm on average, close to January, its snowiest month.
We do not show a snow depth here. The weather model we use reports snow lying on the ground — it knows nothing about grooming or snowmaking, and it is not the base depth a ski area publishes. In Japan we can check our figures against 234 weather stations. Outside Japan there is nothing to check them against, so we do not print a number we have not verified.

How much snow it gets
Measured by us across 3,069 ski areas by one identical method. These are not the resort’s own published figures.
Compared with what is nearby
Within 50 km straight line. Measured the same way, so the ranks compare directly. Ski areas a few kilometres apart share a weather grid cell and can return the same figure.

| Huså | 10 km | 175 cm | 1368 |
| Edhsliften | 11 km | 168 cm | 1438 |
