Ski tours in the Schmirntal are simply fantastic! The Schmirntal is a side valley of the Brenner Pass and is "only" separated from the well-known Zillertal by a few peaks such as Kaserer or Olperer. Never heard of it? That's what insider tips are all about. Instead, fantastic ski tours await you through sparse high forests, free powder slopes and to lonely touring peaks. The choice of tours would be enough for a whole...

Freeriding in the Dolomites and then also as a traverse? That sounds presumptuous. But thanks to the lifts and cable cars of Dolomiti Superski, this is one of the best high alpine ski crossings in the Alps. The ascents are surprisingly short and the descents long and exciting.

Rather, it needs slopes in the "right"...

Fancy a freeride transalp? What a plan! We don't want to bring up Hannibal again, but crossing the Alps is and remains something very special. Especially on skis and when the ascents are limited. There are a maximum of 2 hours of ascent per day, but the descents are definitely worth it. Immediately...

The descent over the "Neue Welt" is unparalleled in the Alps and is only suitable for ski experts with strong nerves. You will need to assess your skiing skills carefully, as the 45° gradient in the exposed terrain requires not only excellent but also safe skiing technique.

There is plenty of snow, sparse forests and generous slopes. And that's just the beginning. Because these peaks are more of an introduction to the world of Triglav. They are dominated by...
