Sandskigebiet Monte Kaolino

Off season Official site

Sandskigebiet Monte Kaolino is a ski area in Germany, at about 521 m. Its mapped area is about 0.2 km across, with 1 marked run and 2 lifts (about 0.2 km of piste in all).

Over the last twelve winters the ERA5 weather model gives it 49 cm of snowfall a season, 2,823rd (tied) of 3,069 worldwide and 69th in Germany. It swings a lot from year to year: the biggest winter, 2020/21 (78 cm), brought more than 3 times as much as the leanest, 2016/17 (26 cm). January is usually the snowiest month, with about 23 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.
