Experts predict that by 2035 the total length of trails in Russian ski resorts will grow 1.5 times.
“The total length of the ski slopes in Russia is 1.3 thousand km, of which 12% are in the Sochi mountain cluster. In the future, the indicator may increase by one and a half times in the next ten years — up to 2 thousand km,” Interfax reports the forecast of the consulting company NF Group.
It is expected that the improved infrastructure and diversity of the offer will attract more visitors, which will contribute to the growth of the country’s tourism industry and the economic development of the regions where the ski resorts are located.
In addition to the increase in the length of the ski slopes, it is expected to increase the number of rooms by 35 thousand. Currently, there are 9.3 thousand rooms in the largest resorts.
