Ski & snowboard on the glacier
There’s nothing better for you than drawing wide turns in the snow? On the Kaunertal Glacier, you have plenty of space for this. By the way: the glacier ski area is not just an experience on the classic two boards or the board. It is also an excellent monoski area for wheelchair users.
Family skiing & tobogganing fun in Fendels
Fendels Winter Mountain is the perfect destination for families: while the little ones gain their first experience on the slopes in a ski course and let off some energy in Bibi’s children’s area, parents can enjoy a relaxing day’s skiing.

Unforgettable ski touring
If you prefer to earn your own descent, then a ski tour in the wintery Kaunertal is just the thing. Routes of various difficulty levels along the Kaunertal Glacier Road will challenge your skills. Whether it’s a leisurely ascent or a challenging summit tour – a fantastic view and a stunning descent back down into the valley always await you at the top.
There’s no better place to enjoy winter in the Kaunertal than on the sun terrace of the glacier restaurant or with a fragrant cup of coffee in the Ochsenalm. Take a little time to relax and unwind!
Winter in Kaunertal for pedestrians
You don’t always have to use sports equipment: You can also discover the Kaunertal by foot in winter. The Karlesjochbahn cable car, for example, takes pedestrians to the Dreiländerblick viewing platform, where you can enjoy an impressive panoramic view of the peaks of Austria, Italy and Switzerland. Or you can be amazed by the winter wonderland on a hike – on snowshoes, for example.
