ORGANISED SPORT
Winter becomes organised
Today, there are around 14 ski lifts (including five at the Seebuck, among them a six-seater chairlift) and over 50 kilometres (31 mi) of downhill runs up to a "black" level of difficulty.
THE LIVING MAP
The mapped place
Feldberg is recorded at 47.862° N, 8.006° E. Its catalogue reference reaches 1,493 metres. A modern resort map compresses terrain, exposure and access into a diagram. This exhibition keeps the underlying contour visible so the place does not become only a list of facilities.
