Evaluated by Skiresort.info, the world's largest test portal for ski resorts.
The evaluation is done as follows
Advanced skiing, freeriding (powder snow skiing) Kaunertal Glacier (Kaunertaler Gletscher)
At the Kaunertal Glacier, you'll find the Black Ibex, probably the steepest slope in Austria with an 87.85% gradient. The steepness of the slope at Falginjoch is truly impressive! More attractive black slopes start at Karlesjoch and Weißseejoch.
The Kaunertal Glacier is a real insider tip for freeriders, with numerous unsecured routes and untouched powder slopes. Various unsecured routes in the ski area start at Karlesjoch, Weißseejoch, and Nörderjoch, leading down to the Ochsenalmbahn or to the Fernergarten (ski bus). And for the real enthusiasts, there's even a route to South Tyrol into the Langtauferer Tal. But be careful – you'll need a ski guide and a transfer back (90 km).
