Ski area SkiWelt Wilder Kaiser - Brixental
The Jochbahn, the fastest 8-seater chairlift in the world, is operated on Brixen's sunny side. With a travel speed of 6 m per second, the detachable, heated chairlift bridges the 2 km long distance extremely quickly and at the same time offers great comfort. In addition, there is the Joch downhill run which, thanks to an ingenious subway solution, takes skiers over the access road without any crossings.
From Brixen you finally reach the Hartkaiser via Hochbrixen, where beginners as well as experts and freeriders get their money's worth. On the one hand you have the connection to the Hohe Salve, on the other hand via the Choralpe even to the Kitzbühel slopes. The Big Playground on the Gampenkogel sweetens the day for boarders. The 1.5 km long piste from the Choralpe to the middle station with a gradient of 80%, the steepest piste in the SkiWelt Wilder Kaiser - Brixental, requires a little experience, whereas beginners will find great pistes on the Westendorf side or at Hochbrixen. Freeriders get their money's worth in Hopfgarten, Scheffau or Westendorf. The approx. 80 refreshment stops that line the ski area also promise real "high pleasure".
If you are going on holiday together with your children, or if in fact you yourself have a thing for fairytales, you should definitely check out the new 10-person "discovery"-gondola in SkiWelt Söll. Interesting experiences built around the theme "Hans in Luck" await you!
