Area Terrain
Beginners:
The wide open nursery slopes at the bottom of the Hahnenkamm
gondola, close to the town centre, are where the famous 'Red
Devils' ski school meet. These nursery slops provide the perfect
introduction to skiing. The Kitzbüheler Horn also offers
some great wide, undemanding blue runs.
Intermediaries:
Amidst the wealth of slopes on the huge ski circus, linked
by an efficient lift system and a free ski-bus service, intermediates
are in their element - the swooping, wooded runs of the Ehrenbachhöhe
and the exhilarating descents of the Kitzbüheler Horn
and the Bärenbachkogel at Jochberg, to name but a few
of the challenging and manageable pistes in store for the
competent skier.
Advanced:
Proficient skiers will certainly want to test their skills
on the “Hahnenkamm Streif”, considered by many
to be the most testing of all the international racing pistes.
If you dream of gigantic moguls and exhilarating off-piste,
the Ehrenbachhöhe is not to be missed.
Snowboard Guide:
The terrain on the Kitzbüheler Horn is one of Tyrol's
most scenic and popular snowbarding areas. It is an 'eldorado'
for freestylers, freeriders and alpine snowboarders. There
can be plenty of powder under the Bichlalm after a fresh snowfall.
