Ski area SkiWelt Wilder Kaiser - Brixental

With the "SkiWelt Wilder Kaiser - Brixental" lift pass, you have access to one of the largest and most modern ski areas in the world. The SkiWelt has already been voted one of the best ski areas in the world several times! 83 modern lifts, 270 km of pistes and several snow parks guarantee endless fun in the snow. Whether big or small, beginner or pro, everyone gets their money's worth here. There are also three day and night toboggan runs in the Skiwelt Wilder Kaiser - Brixental, including a 4.5 metre run in the Ellmau-Going ski area

The high-tech, 10-person gondola "Hartkaiser", takes you up to 1,530 m altitude. The cabin lift has heated seating and Wi-Fi, and replaces the previous "Hartkaiser" lift, now being one of the most modern lifts in the world. The mountain station was enlarged to include the new "Erlebnis Eldorado Hartkaiser" activity area, including e.g. a children's restaurant and activity ski school. The valley station includes a new sports shop, restaurant, apres ski bar, parking garage and a heated ski depot.

From the Hartkaiser you can directly access the rest of the SkiWelt Wilder Kaiser - Brixental. The 2.25 km valley run from Hartkaiser in particular promises unlimited piste fun, besides loads of other attractive runs. Cracks can test the black pistes, and ample deep snow areas are also available. The 80 ski huts in the ski area promise a real treat.

By upgrading to the "Super Ski Card" lift pass, you get access to over 2,815 km of piste and 939 lifts in 22 ski regions (see Ski Region).

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!

Night skiing Ellmau

The SkiWelt Wilder Kaiser-Brixental offers night skiing possibilities in three ski areas: in Söll, Brixen and Westendorf. The highlight regarding night skiing awaits you in SkiWelt Söll. Here you can look forward to Austia's largest night ski area! From Wednesday to Saturday, a total of 10 km prepared pistes are available until night-time. The five runs around the Hexenwasser gondola lift and the Keat and Hexen6er chairlifts are floodlit until 21:45, the valley run until 22:30. In addition to all these pistes, the "Hans im Glück" fun arena on the 10-seater adventure gondola is also floodlit for skiing fun in the evening. Night skiing in Söll is extraordinary and so extensive that a special lift pass has to be acquired in order to use the offer.

Apart from this exceptional offer, the SkiWelt Wilder Kaiser Brixental has two further night skiing areas: The 500 m beginner's area at the 4-person chairlift in Westendorf is illuminated every Tuesday until 21:00. In Brixen, there is another 300 metres of blue night skiing piste at the Schusterbühel lift, which is illuminated continuously until 19:00 at certain times of the day. Also in Westendorf and Brixen a fee has to be paid in order to enjoy night skiing.

Après ski Ellmau

Rustic huts, snack stations, trendy evening spots, bars and discos offer countless après ski opportunities and have made Ellmau a favourite winter sports resort.

Or, get to know the famous Tyrolean hospitality in the well maintained cafés and taverns. A round of moonlight tobogganing on the 3.2 km long run on the Astberg, ice skating or curling also promise fun.

TFor advanced riders and pros, both the medium and pro lines offer a variety of obstacles such as a kinked box, various tubes and several jib elements. Furthermore, there is also a kicker line with a 5 m long kicker and 8 m long roller. Between the rides and after a great freestyler day you can relax in the park-own chill area.
