Dobogókő Sípálya

Off season

Dobogókő Sípálya is a ski area in Hungary, at about 566 m. Its mapped area is about 0.7 km across, with 2 marked runs and 1 lift (about 1 km of piste in all).

Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 32 cm of snowfall a season, 2,909th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 4th in Hungary. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2017/18 (70 cm), brought more than 6 times as much as the leanest, 2015/16 (11 cm). January is usually the snowiest month, with about 13 cm.

Snow depth and the seven-day outlook appear here once snow starts to fall. Until then, the long-run record comes first.

Elevation of the ski area’s centre point, taken from a digital elevation model. It is not the base-to-summit range.

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.
