About the area

Pilsko-Jontek in the Beskidy range is essentially a red-run area: of about 11 km of marked pistes, some 7 km are red and 4 km (34%) are green or blue. There is nothing black, no marked freeride terrain, so committed experts will run out of challenge quickly, and the family verdict is negative. Beginners can make it work with caveats: five short easy runs sit next to a lift base, but the bulk of the terrain is steeper than a first-week skier wants. Confident intermediates get the most out of it.

Eleven lifts serve the slopes: four chairlifts plus three T-bars and four platters, which keeps queues spread but means a lot of surface-lift riding. The area runs from 684 m to 1432 m, a vertical of 660 m, with the longest single descent measuring 3317 m. About 3 km of piste is floodlit for evening skiing.
