Aprica is armed with 24 ski lifts, uploading 22,000 skiers per hour. The majority of skiers go up by gondola or chair lift to the half way point of Malga Palaboine.

From Malga Palaboine easy and intermediate runs descend back down through the trees to the village. Another route to the halfway area allows skiers to descend blacks and reds, or schools have the option to descend the 4km Superpanoramica from 2000m back to the town.

80% of the pistes are snowmaking but Aprica is considered snowsure due to the resort's northern facing pistes. The resort typically opens in early December and closes middle April, making it suitable for both February and April trips.
