ski fields

Mountain skiing areas

Ski fields are areas developed for skiing, with slopes, lifts, and facilities for winter sports.

The term is standard in Australia and New Zealand, where Americans and Europeans would say ski resort or ski area: The ski fields opened early this year after heavy snowfall.

The plural form is typical even when referring to a single location.
