How this was measured

Skiboard measured the 1 pistes OpenStreetMap maps in Langis - Glaubenberg (0.6 km) on swisstopo’s terrain model: the steepest 100 m of each, against every Swiss piste of the same colour.

Measured along the line OpenStreetMap draws, on terrain without snow: snow and grooming soften steps, and a piste can run beside its line. A gradient of 100 % is 45°. Colours as OpenStreetMap maps them, which can differ from the lift company’s piste map: check it before you go.
