SkiPri data

SkiPri Awards — the data ranking

A ranking derived from the SkiPri score and organised for the Awards so that only similarly sized resorts are compared. Ski areas have their own ranking. The criteria, sources and weightings will be published.

Public vote

Public Choice Awards — the skiers’ choice

Votes will be counted separately in the six Awards categories. A resort or ski area will compete only against other entities in its category.

Six categories, two rankings

Within each category, the SkiPri data ranking and the public ranking will be published separately.

Useful, transparent awards

  • The data awards and public vote remain separate.
  • Missing data does not automatically count against a resort.
  • Each resort or ski area is compared only with entities in its category.
  • A resort cannot buy an award or alter its ranking.

The SkiPri Awards are an independent distinction organised by SkiPri. They are not affiliated with any other awards programme.
