Paradise for winter sports enthusiasts

Have you ever wondered what it takes to become one of the best ski resorts in Austria? Several impressive mountains are the basic requirement. Then there are high-performance, modern lifts, wide and panoramic pistes and, of course, guaranteed snow. But that's not all - in Sölden, our extensive and varied pistes also ensure unforgettable winter sports moments.

SÖLDEN SKI AREA

We fulfil winter sports dreams

Sölden is considered to be extremely snow-sure. Three factors guarantee an extra-long ski season from September to May:

  • The altitude of the ski area, which stretches from 1,350 to 3,340 metres. That's an incredible 2,000 metres difference in altitude!
  • The 2 glacier ski areas on the Rettenbach and Tiefenbachferner, where early birds can start carving from mid-September.
  • The possibility of making technical snow on around 77 % of all pistes.

PLENTY OF SPACE FOR WIDE TURNS

The Sölden ski area covers a total of 429 hectares of pistes. Even if more than 10,000 skiers are enjoying themselves on the slopes, there is still around 400 m² of slope for each individual. This means that on average there are only 25 skiers in action per hectare - a very important factor for the safety of all guests.
