Free-riding in Carinthia’s highest skiing areas

Do you yearn for downhill runs in powder snow or névé…but still you would not want to forego the comfort of cable cars and mountain railways? In that case we are the right destination for you! Because the three highest altitude Carinthian skiing areas - Grossglockner/Heiligenblut, Möll Valley Glacier/Flattach and Ankogel/Mallnitz – are a true paradise for free-riding, thanks to their vast broad slopes far above the treeline!

Terrific: free-riding under the gaze of the Grossglockner

In the Grossglockner/Heiligenblut skiing area no fewer than 5 marked and tested free-ride routes with a total length of over 10 km await you - and the possible routes are almost infinite, right from the highest part of the skiing area at an altitude of nearly 3,000m down to the valley bottom at 1,200m.

The Möll Valely Glacier near Flattach offers the exquisite delights of Carinthia’s highest "Powder Pleasures" - and this all year round!

And the Ankogel near Mallnitz long ago established itself as an "insider tip" for free-riders, excelling on account of its vast area and first-class snow conditions throughout the winter season.

Our tip:
Using open slopes away from the secure pistes requires skill and experience. Therefore we recommend that non-experts hire a certified mountain and ski guide for support. For further information and booking, go to info@tauernalpin.at!
