Ski area Hochzeiger
The "Hochzeiger" lift pass gives you access to 9 lifts and 7 conveyor belts and 40 kilometres of pistes. Thanks to the altitude of 1,450 - 2,488 metres and the modern snowmaking system for the entire ski area, unlimited winter sports fun is guaranteed until late spring.
The ski area is well suited for advanced skiers, but also for families. The extras for families are the excellent offers from the ski schools for children: transfers from all the villages in the valley to the piste, children's ski school and ski kindergarten, a piste rules trail and child-friendly mountain huts.
Other features of the ski area include lifts with heated seats and weather protection bonnets, a long panoramic descent with magnificent views, the snow park with a box and kicker line, a race track with timekeeping and a 6 km long toboggan run, which is floodlit once a week in the evening! The Zirbenfall is a real challenge for experts: the steepest section of piste on the Hochzeiger with an 80% gradient over 1.5 km will get your adrenaline pumping!
Wi-Fi is available in the ski area at the Hochzeiger valley station, middle station and the Sechszeiger area and can be used free of charge after a one-off registration.

Après ski Jerzens
Want some après ski fun? Then plan a stop at the conservatory of the Zeiger Restaurant at the middle station. You can spend enjoyable time here in the light of the afternoon sun, even when the weather outside is too windy or cold to make for open-air après ski.
The Stadler hut located on the valley run is THE place to be to sip a cool beer at the end of a day on the piste. The "Hennenstadl" is also really popular with après ski fans. Once you have warmed up for the evening, continue on to the "Illegal", where you can keep on going until the early morning hours.
Sporty offers away from the pistes are also available. Jerzens offers a beautiful winter landscape which is waiting to be explored e.g. on snowshoe hike. Or you can enjoy a round of ice skating on the ice rink. Those looking for more of a challenge, they can test themselves in ice climbing on one of the ice falls in the Pitz Valley.

Snowpark: Hochzeiger Snowpark Jerzens
The snow park Hochzeiger presents itself perfectly shaped and with approx. 15 elements on two lines (easy and medium). Beginners and more experienced riders can run riot here and practice their moves on boxes and kickers.
The park is located above the Hochzeiger middle station, at approx. 2,250 m. Therefore, there are no long transfer routes to bridge here, but you can find a good and regular rhythm between the runs. Adrenalin kicks and lots of fun await snowboarders and freeskiers alike!
