Description Ehrwalder Alm – Ehrwald

In about 20 minutes from Garmisch, you reach the first village in the Tiroler Zugspitz Arena – Ehrwald. Below the mighty Zugspitze massif, you can carve your turns on beautiful forest runs without waiting in line.

A modern eight-seater gondola takes you up to the Ehrwalder Alm. From here, you can cross over to the 6-seater chairlift Issentalkopf with weather protection covers and heated seats, which brings you to the highest point in the ski area at 1,925 m. From the top, you have a magnificent view into the Gaistal valley all the way to Seefeld and across the Tiroler Zugspitz Arena. Slightly below, the detachable 6-seater chairlift Gaistal with weather protection covers and heated seats ends. Runs of all difficulty levels start here and lead back down to the valley, and a wonderful easy run takes you down to the Gaistalbahn. This run is perfect for families and leisure skiers. The lift brings you comfortably and quickly back up to the Issentalkopf.

At the easy valley run, the detachable 6-seater chairlift Ganghofer Blitz with weather protection covers starts and gives access to beautiful, easy to intermediate runs. Two additional drag lifts provide further ascent options on the Ehrwalder Alm, and for beginners, rope tows and conveyor belts from the ski school are available near the mountain station of the gondola. The run down to the valley station winds as an easy slope directly to the gondola, so even less experienced skiers and snowboarders can make it all the way down to the valley. To top off your day, be sure to stop by the BrentAlm for some après-ski.
