SkiWelt Brixen im Thale
Sunny slope, variety of pistes & cross-country ski trail on the mountain
In SkiWelt Brixen, you can access the ski area directly and experience pure skiing pleasure. The pistes on the sunny side of the Brixental Valley offer everything from leisurely carving to challenging descents over the Hohe Salve, the south slope or at the Käbersalven lift.
Three valley runs are available, including the classic route, the "Kaslach" natural snow run when the snow conditions are right and the scenic Tanzer run. A special highlight is the viewing platform at the Zinsberg cable car with its impressive panorama. If you want to start early, take advantage of the early-bird skiing from mid-February and make your first turns on freshly groomed pistes from 7.30 am.
Two valley gondolas take you quickly to the ski area - one up towards Hochbrixen, the other towards Choralpe/Westendorf. The practice lift on the mountain, many easy to intermediate slopes and the ski schools are ideal for beginners. Families will love the "Kinder-SkiWelt" area with Bobo's Miniclub from the age of 3, children's club, conveyor belts, its own practice lift and spacious pistes. The speed measuring track promises excitement, while the scenic high-altitude trail in Hochbrixen is another highlight for cross-country skiers.
