The new Kapauns 8-seater chair lift with extended route is the first step in this direction as a replacement for the existing 2-seater chair lift and already awaits you in winter 2022/23.

NEW! Austria's longest downhill valley run - 1,930 metres of vertical drop in one non-stop descent!

Austria’s longest downhill valley run! Boasting 1,930 meters of vertical drop, it offers pure, unadulterated skiing pleasure – and it can be skied in one run to boot! If you start at the highest point in the Arena – the ‘Übergangsjoch’ at an elevation of 2,500 meters – and ski all the way down to the valley then you cover an astounding almost 2,000 vertical meters over a distance of some 10 kilometers.

NEW from December 2016: Dorfbahn lift in Gerlos new 10-seater mono-cable detachable gondola

Boasting a sports shop, ski rental outlet, comfortable, state-of-the-art ski storage facilities and a covered car park for more than 200 cars, the 3-storey base station building in the village center is set to offer new standards of quality. Capacity problems in bringing passengers to the ski area in Gerlos will be a thing of the past. The middle station is located at the Rössl Alm, the mountain station on the Vorkogel at an elevation of 2,100 meters.

2015/2016


Zell am Ziller valley run

The new slope, which begins at the middle station near the Wiesenalm, is 2.2 km long and features a slope of approx. 50% making it a challenge (black slope). A special treat for all ambitious winter athletes: a continuous run from the Übergangsjoch at 2,500 m down to the base in Zell or Rohrberg at 580 m is possible and thereby 8.4 km of slopes and 1,920 vertical meters are conquered.

New winter highlight in the Zillertal Arena: the HöhenFresser (elevation devourer) Tour in Zell am Ziller

Austria's longest valley run - 1,930 vertical meters in one run!
The Zillertal Arena will open a new and long-awaited highlight this coming season: The longest valley run in Austria offers pure skiing fun with 1,930 vertical meters in one run! The Zell am Ziller valley run is thereby the slope with the highest elevation difference in Austria and does its name justice.
