The aim of this paper is to analyze the frequency and types of injuries in recreational alpine skiing and to identify the factors influencing injuries, based on a systematic literature review on the topic of injuries among recreational alpine skiers. Through the assessment of the methodological quality of the studies, 14 papers were analyzed, providing data indicating that injuries in recreational alpine skiing occur at a rate of one per 1,000 ski days. Injuries to the lower extremities occur in 40% of cases, with the knee, lower leg, ankle, and thigh being the most commonly injured areas. The cause of injuries is most often a fall and loss of control, usually due to a failure to adapt skiing style to one's own abilities and the conditions on the slope. Additionally, a significant number of injuries occur after collisions with other skiers or stationary objects. Risky behavior and overestimation of one's own abilities were identified as key factors in the occurrence of injuries. The development of skiing equipment over the last 50 years is certainly one of the key factors contributing to the continuous decline in the number and frequency of injuries. Based on the available data, it can be concluded that further research on injuries in recreational alpine skiing is necessary due to the increasing number of skiers. Moreover, there is a need to define and develop a standardized procedure for collecting, analyzing, and synthesizing data to enable future comparisons between different studies and to draw conclusions about the number, frequency, and types of injuries in different samples of participants.
