The 3 Country Leisure Arena includes eight skiing areas, five of them in North Tyrol: the Steinplatte Skiing Area in the Kitzbühel Alps which is connected to the Winklmoos Alpine Pasture on the Bavarian side, the Buchensteinwand Skiing Area of the Pillersee Cable Car, the SkiStar St. Johann in Tirol, the Lärchenhof Lifts in Erpfendorf, and the family skiing area of Kirchdorf.
In addition, there are the two Salzburg Skiing Areas - the Almenwelt Lofer and Heutal in Unken - as well as the Bavarian Winklmoosalm. Via one ski pass only you can access 171 km of perfectly groomed slopes and 61 lift facilities. The facts are impressive: 55% of the slopes can be covered with artificial snow, 8 reservoirs provide the necessary water, 34 ski huts invite to stop and relax.
In all respects the 3 Country Leisure Arena offers a range of special offers for children in the kids' parks, such as the "Triassi Kinderland" in Waidring, the Bobo Kids Park on Mt. Buchensteinwand or at "Valle's World" with the snowman Valle in St. Johann in Tirol. In addition, there are 10 ski schools and four Snow Parks, including the QPark in St. Johann in Tirol and the Steinplatte Snow Park.
