Stans itself only has a small ski area with one lift, but there is a large snowpark directly in the resort. The "Hotzone.TV Snowpark Stans" is s true paradise for freestylers. Even young riders can run riot on the Easy Line: 2 small kickers, as well as kids boxes offer the perfect opportunity to practise the first tricks. More advanced freestylers can use the various lines with boxes, rails, a rollercoaster box, a jib-pipeline, 2 large kickers, and a wall ride.
