The Call of the Three-Thousanders

Freeriding & Ski Touring in the Glacier Spring


Immerse yourself in the wild mountain world of Pitztal: glittering powder snow, ascents through eternal ice, the untouched Kaunergrat nature park and endless Swiss stone pine forests – this is where you can chase the winter.

Since 2009, the Pitztal Wild Face – one of the toughest freeride races in the world – has been drawing the best riders into the valley. From the Mittagskogel all the way down to the valley, you can experience the pros up close one weekend every March – spectacular runs guaranteed. Want to be there in person? Then book your room now!

The right level for everyone

Beginners take it step by step. Intermediate riders take their skills to the next level. Experts face new challenges and push beyond their limits. Always dreamed of standing on the roof of Tyrol? The Wildspitze, at 3,770 metres Tyrol's highest peak, lures countless adventure seekers every day. Admittedly, it can get busy at the summit on sunny days, but once you place your hand on the summit cross and stand before an endless sea of mountain peaks, everything else fades away. Goosebumps guaranteed. Alpine expertise or professional guiding is a must.

Guided tours are available for every level:

  • Freeride day on the glacier
  • Ski tour to the majestic Wildspitze
  • Beginner ski tours and freeride taster days
  • Pack your skis and your sunglasses. Spring in Pitztal is glacier time, sunshine time, time to freeride. Snow is guaranteed until May.
