Alpensia Resort

While the resort is open year-round, the off-season turns the bottom of the slopes into a wild flower garden of about 100,000 square meters.

[3] When the ski and snowboarding season opens, all runs are serviced by chairlifts and are named: Alpha (beginner), Bravo (beginner/intermediate), Charlie, Delta, Echo and Foxtrot catering for intermediate ability.

[4] Alpensia was the focus of the 2018 Cultural Olympiad, with a new, purpose-built concert hall within the resort as well as an indoor water park.

[5] The decision to build Alpensia resort was taken in 2003, in the frame of the ambition of the Gangwon Province to host the Winter Olympics.

The speed events of downhill, super-G, and combined were held at Jeongseon Alpine Centre (which was supposed to be demolished to restaure the forest, although that which was destroyed was of old age that could not be brought back).
