I changed it to this because the information listed on Wikipedia wasn't accurate as pointed out by @Robjohnson

Clearly NZ isn't marketing itself to the rest of the world quite the same way it is in Australia. If you say New Zealand in Australia, skiing is pretty much the first thing that comes to mind, but it's the least guessed answer here.

There are at least 25 ski fields in New Zealand (most in the South Island). And some include whole mountainsides.

Germany is not very mountainous. Alpine skiing can mostly be done along the southern frontier.

There are ski resorts outside of the Alps in Germany most noteably in the Black Forest, the Erzgebirge, the Bavarian Forest and the Sauerland but these resorts are rather small with only a few ones having more than 5-10km of slopes.

It's amazing to me that Australia beats out a place like Finland

Finland is quite flat. Lots of space for cross-country skiing, but not so much for downhill.

Surprised Andorra wasn't there. Despite the country being tiny, skiing is pretty popular there.

acres of skiable terrain is better than measuring ski hills by km of runs

Yep, don't know about North America, but in Europe nobody mesures acres of slopes, always the length.

I agree with brettski. The problem with measuring by distance of runs is that what counts as separate runs is subjective. If there's a large, open bowl, as there often is at ski resorts, how do you classify that as separate runs?

I'll bet Nepal could have some awesome ski runs, if they were into that sort of thing.

South Korea surprised me. Being a winter Olympic host nation, I figured they'd make the list.

Wow! Surprising that Slovenia isn't there, don't know if that's just me being stupid but I'm pretty sure they have a few resorts there. France and the US are tight, would of thought France would have slightly more but there we go!

you should make a quiz comparing skiresort area to general area. I bet Austria would win the battle >.
