Obergurgl-Hochgurgl ski pass
Everyone is welcome in the Obergurgl-Hochgurgl ski area. Individually tailored offers ensure that every guest gets their money's worth: from beginner's tickets, staggered day tickets, multi-day tickets to season tickets, every winter sports enthusiast will find the perfect ticket. The Ötztal Super Ski Pass, which is automatically valid for all Ötztal ski resorts for three days or more, promises plenty of variety.
Night skiing
There is something magical about night skiing and tobogganing. When nature is plunged into darkness and only the moon casts light shadows, skiing and tobogganing late at night is even more fun. Night skiing and tobogganing in Obergurgl makes this possible. Twice a week, one slope and one toboggan run are floodlit in the evening for even more skiing and tobogganing fun. It is particularly beautiful when the starry sky is twinkling.
Ski and Snowboard School
Ever wondered what it's like to whiz down a perfectly groomed, glistening slope on boards that seem to mean the world? Or what it's like to have just one board strapped to you instead of two? Or would you rather improve your turning technique and become more confident on your skis or snowboard?
Obergurgl Ski School, one of the best ski schools in Austria, offers private and group lessons for young and old. At the end of the day, everyone's face will be aglow!
Tobogganing
The natural toboggan run from the mountain station to the valley station of the Hochgurgl cable car offers a fast-paced tobogganing experience. Experienced tobogganists and beginners alike can enjoy this traditional Tyrolean winter sport on a perfectly groomed toboggan run with 25 bends. If you don't jump on your sledge a second or even third time, you've done something wrong. The ascent with the Hochgurgl cable car is very easy. Another highlight is the weekly night toboggan run, followed by a stop at one of the huts or restaurants in the village or on the mountain.
