The resort offers a vast base for the practice of winter sports that includes several cable transport installations (ski drag lifts, chairlifts, cable gondolas and cable cars)and ski slopes with various degrees of difficulty that are serviced by snow-making installations. Bradul ski slope is also equipped with night lighting.
