Slopes/runs Hochzeiger – Jerzens
The resort's sunny runs are suitable for all abilities and ages. From practice slopes to steep runs with gradients of up to 80%, there is an excellent spectrum. Other highlights include ski routes, the Benni Raich run, Pitzi's ‘skiing rules track’, a snowpark, a family funline and an Easy Skier line for beginners. As most of the slopes are west-facing, you can find lots of sunny runs up until 4 pm even in December and January. The Panorama at just under 2,500 metres at the mountain station of the 8-person Hochzeiger 2.5 chairlift is particularly recommended. 70% of the slopes can be accessed from here.
