The mountain is calling
Skiing is like flying - only better!
The Ötztal is a paradise for winter sports enthusiasts, boasting perfectly groomed slopes, modern lifts, and breathtaking panoramas. The top ski resorts of Sölden, Hochötz, and Obergurgl are easily accessible via the free ski bus, offering diverse runs for all ability levels. Sölden impresses with World Cup tracks and two glaciers, ensuring snow reliability well into spring. Hochötz is family-friendly, while Obergurgl stands out for its altitude and excellent snow conditions. Beyond classic skiing, the Ötztal also caters to snowboarders, freeriders, and ski tourers. Deep powder slopes, fun parks, and untouched nature provide unforgettable experiences. Cozy huts and après-ski venues invite you to relax after an exhilarating day on the slopes.
For those who prefer a more relaxed pace, a hut tour—optionally combined with a hearty hut evening—and a sledding adventure make for a perfect combination.
Opportunities also abound for ice skating, curling, ice climbing, and much more.
A romantic winter walk through the snowy landscape or a snowshoe hike offers a quieter way to enjoy winter. These peaceful activities are becoming increasingly popular here in the heart of the Ötztal Valley.
