Varied, snow sure, sun-kissed

Beautiful and clearly arranged yet never boring: The downhill runs of Hochoetz have a lot to offer. Absolutely snow-sure and in the very best panoramic setting, the sunny slopes invite you to make your ultimate turns on skis or snowboards. Both pleasure skiers and ambitious professionals will find the right offer on the extra wide runs.

Varied skiing pleasures

A well-balanced mix of blue, red and black ski runs provides thrilling winter sports action right at the entrance to Ötztal. Beginners can practice best on the slopes no. 2 in the lower area of Ötzilift piste, Kühtaile (no. 6) or on the slope no. 11 (Balbachlift). A particularly beautiful mountain panorama awaits you on the Brunnenkopf slope (no. 2) while you can get really up to speed on the steepest slopes of Hochoetz, runs no. 8 (Mohrenkopflift) and no. 12 (Wetterkreuzbahn). The longest ski run down from Brunnenkopfbahn top station is about five kilometers and takes you via the middle station down to the base station of Acherkogelbahn mountain gondola - section II.
