Each year the Pitztal Valley welcomes numerous national and international ski teams drawn to the region by the excellent facilities and reliable snow cover. The valley is also popular with less accomplished skiers, who will find gentle slopes and patient teachers. The ski pistes on the glacier can be accessed quickly and easily via the Wildspitzbahn cable car. The valley is also home to one of the best snowparks in the region with lots of kickers, rails and boxes for freestyle skiers and snowboarders to dial in their tricks.

Never-ending winter
The Pitztal Glacier is a glistening world of eternal snow and ice – and not only in winter. Such is the altitude of the glacier that the snow never melts, making it popular with extreme mountaineers and those who simply can't get enough of the white stuff.
