Hochzeiger - Pitztal skiing area

The Hochzeiger is the skiing area in which the world famous skistar Benjamin Raich grew up.

About 52 km of ski slopes, 9 lift facilites and 1,000 m of altitude difference attract winter athletes from far and wide on the high plateau above Jerzens in the Pitztal valley. Snow is not lacking in this skiing area, as it features state-of-the-art snow making equipment. Snowboarding, carving or skiing stands for fun both for adults and children. If you don’t have skiers or equipment, you can rent it in one of the ski rentals. However, the Hochzeiger is considered to be the skiing area number 1 in the Pitztal valley. It includes undulating terrain and is clear of trees.

After an exhausting day on the skis it’s high time to meet up in one of the ski lodges and restaurants. Since December 2009, there are two new slopes, the Zirben Slope and the Panorama Slope, as well as a new lift facility: the Zirben lift is a ultra-modern 6-passenger chair lift with heated seats. And did you know that this skiing area is the home skiing area of ski star Benjamin Raich? One of the black ski slopes is named after the famous skier.
