​
​
1. Skifahren am Hochzeiger
Sonnenverwöhnte Pisten und ein eindrucksvolles Bergpanorama warten im Familienskigebiet Hochzeiger. Pitztaler Gastlichkeit, familiäre Atmosphäre und Schneesicherheit mit familienfreundlichen Angeboten.
Neun komfortable Liftanlagen und 40 Pistenkilometer
in allen Schwierigkeitsgraden erfüllen kleine und große Skifahrerwünsche.
​
2. Skiarea Pitztal Glacier
with stop at Café 3.440
Skiing from September to April. If you are on the Pitztal Glacier, the highest ski area in Austria, you can enjoy an incredible panorama stretching from the Zugspitze through the Allgäu Alps and the Silvretta Group to the Rosengarten,
the Ötztal and Stubai Alps.
From the Cafe 3.440m, the highest in Austria,
the view is simply overwhelming.
3. Skiarea Riffelsee
​
The Rifflsee ski area offers an attractive range
of varied slopes for the entire family.
It impresses with its altitude and the snow safety.
On slope to the valley you have
the possibility to get to the
Pitztal Glacier station.
4. Ice-Climbing on the
Pitztal Waterfalls
​
They carry names like Havana, Monsterline,
Shark or Play with fire - and describe coordinates in paradise: When the imposing waterfalls of the Pitztal freeze to bizarre sculptures, ice climbers have a large selection.
With a total of 45 designated ice climbing areas of varying degrees of difficulty, the Pitztal is one of the absolute hot spots of the scene. Four ice climbing routes are nearby of our guesthouse. The routes "Stuibenfall", "Silberkönig", "Wasserleitungsfall" and "Softy".
5. Crosscountry Skiing 2.700m
If you want to be sure that there is enough snow
and the trails are perfectly prepared, then cross-country
skiing in the Pitztal is the right choice. Even the Talloipe,
which leads over 21.7 kilometers from the village of Wiese
up to the 1743 meter high Mandarfen, offers optimal conditions due to its altitude. On top of the Pitztal Glacier
at 2,760 meters, cross-country skiers can enjoy an altitude training in front of a breathtaking scenery from autumn to spring. In the ski resort Rifflsee you are on 2250m.
6. Toboggan Fun
Skiarea Hochzeiger
​
Fancy a toboggan evening? Then go to the Tanzalm. Every Thursday the gondola lift at the Hochzeiger is in operation after the regular skiing from 7.30 pm to 9 pm. Rent the sled at the valley station, drive up with the gondola to the middle station at 2,000m - and look forward to a thrilling adventure. About six kilometers and 550 meters in altitude, the illuminated natural toboggan run makes its way through the fairytale snowy pine forest to the starting point.
​
7. Pistenbully-Fahrern
am Hochzeiger
​
Sie wiegen zwölf Tonnen, sind viereinhalb Meter breit, haben 500 PS – und schwärmen in der Nacht aus. Urlauber können im Pistenbully direkt neben dem Fahrer einchecken und live dabei sein, wenn das Abenteuer Pistenbullyfahrt am Hochzeiger beginnt. Die außergewöhnliche Mitfahrgelegenheit wird wöchentlich angeboten.
​
8. Freeride in Pitztal
​
Wide slopes, endless powder and undiscovered lines await freeriders and snowboarders in the Pitztal. No matter what level a rider has - on the top of Tyrol there is something for everyone. The cable cars bring you up to
the Pitztal Glacier & Rifflsee skiarea.
The most beautiful and safest off-piste can be explored
with certified mountain and ski guides from the
Freeride Center Pitztal.
9. Pitzis First Line Hochzeiger
​
It can´t be more exclusive! Even before the gondola start their regular operation, you can enjoy the most beautiful runs every Wednesday on freshly groomed slopes.
Followed by a mountain breakfast in the restaurant
your day will start fantastic.
10. Skitour to the Wildspitze (3.774m)
​
A must-do for every ski-hiker, of course, the ascent to the highest mountain in North Tyrol, the Wildspitze with 3,774 m. The descent takes place via the Taschachferner to Mittelberg. For safety we reccomend very good mountain experience
