Deep snow courses Zillertal
Freeriding at its best
Every skier knows the Zillertal. It is easily accessible and offers four magnificent ski areas. Vivalpin professional mountain guide and ski instructor Andi Stippler has explored the extensive off-piste area over the past few winters and has come to the conclusion that the endless freeride runs between Gilfert and Olperer are among the best in the northern Alps: The endless freeride runs between Gilfert and Olperer are among the best in the Northern Alps and definitely don't need to hide behind Andermatt, Disentis and co.
The best starting point for your freeride and deep snow adventures is Hochfügen with an initial altitude of 1,480m.
If you want to dive into the Zillertal powder with Andi or another VIVALPIN freeride pro, then you've come to the right place. You can find more information in the vivalpin.blog.
