点评:Dombai is the eldest, yet contemporary ski resort in Russia. It has vast ski area with the base station located at 1600 m elevation. Two lines of lifts can take you uphill. One of them is old soviet-time pendulum lift which looks not very safe but is still popular due to lower prices for ski passes and a kind of vintage fleur. The other line is modern and comfortable with gondola lift to 2277 m station and 6 person chair lift to 3050 m. It takes about 15 minutes to rise to the 3050 m station from the bottom. The third chair lift to the top of Mussa-Achitara mountain is rather slow, but it’s worth it, as the sights from the top of the mountain are truly impressive.
Pistes are marked as green, blue, red and black, though the single black piste is not too complicated, in Alpine resorts it would be marked as red also. All pistes were well-prepared. And the resort has the vast areas for off-piste skiing!
Unfortunately, the pistes were poorly marked on the ground with few fences and markers, so in bad weather you had to ski carefully to avoid getting out of the piste. Luckily, there was only one day of fog and light snowfall during our vacations, the others were sunny, so we enjoyed skiing and snowboarding.
As for apres-ski activities, there are a lot of restaurants and cafes, souvenir shops and local product markets both up and downhill, spa center, etc.
And there were not too many tourists at the time, thus no long queues to the lifts, no waiting in restaurants, and almost free pistes for speed skiing.
I believe, the resort is ideal for beginner skiers and for off piste fans.

雪道分为绿道、蓝道、红道和黑道,虽然唯一的黑道难度不高,但在阿尔卑斯山滑雪胜地,同样的雪道通常也会被标记为红道。所有雪道都维护得很好。度假村拥有广阔的野雪滑雪区域!
可惜的是,雪道标识不清,只有少量的围栏和标记,所以在恶劣天气下,你必须小心滑行,以免滑出雪道。幸运的是,我们的假期只有一天有雾并下了小雪,其余时间都是晴天,因此我们尽情享受了滑雪和单板滑雪的乐趣。
至于滑雪后的休闲活动,山上山下都有很多餐厅、咖啡馆、纪念品商店和当地特产市场,还有水疗中心等等。
而且当时游客不多,所以缆车不用排长队,餐厅也不用等位,而且几乎可以畅滑所有雪道,尽情享受速度滑雪的乐趣。
我认为,这个度假村非常适合初学者和野雪爱好者。
