Skiing Information
There is 64km of skiable piste and the skiing is nicely varied, with good beginner slopes at high altitude at the top of the gondola, and some great gentle progression slopes to move on to. There are also some breathtaking reds and blacks for the more advanced. In addition, Bramberg am Wildkogel is only 20 minutes from either the Kitzbuhel ski area with 170km of fabulous pistes or the Zillertal ski arena, one of Austria’s largest ski areas, with over 649km of piste. For a small supplement, our groups can upgrade their lift pass to include either areas.
