Gullbotn
Gullbotn is a ski area in Norway, at about 265 m. Its mapped area is about 1.4 km across.
Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 272 cm of snowfall a season, 608th (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 46th in Norway. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2014/15 (799 cm), brought more than 8 times as much as the leanest, 2024/25 (98 cm). January is usually the snowiest month, with about 78 cm.
Snow depth and the seven-day outlook appear here once snow starts to fall. Until then, the long-run record comes first.

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.
