Winter in Ötztal

In winter, the Ötztal presents itself with a unique mixture of clear mountain air, vast expanses of snow and impressive glacier panoramas. When winter hiking in Ötztal, you will experience quiet paths, sunny high-altitude routes and unspoilt winter landscapes. Toboggan runs, nature trails and cosy places to stop for refreshments also make every excursion a real pleasure. Vent in particular, situated at the end of the valley, offers ideal conditions for a peaceful and decelerated winter holiday in the Ötztal.

An impressive variety of skiing awaits around Vent: the Sölden ski area with 146 kilometres of pistes is one of the most famous winter sports resorts in the Alps, while Gurgl , which is also nearby, is one of the snowiest and most modern ski areas in Tyrol with 112 kilometres of pistes. Vent itself has a small, family-orientated ski area - perfect for connoisseurs and anyone who prefers quiet skiing. The region is also an excellent area for ski tours in the Ötztal, with a large selection of classic and quiet summit destinations. Those looking to relax after an active day will find soothing warmth, saunas and thermal pools at the AQUA DOME in Längenfeld - ideal for rounding off a winter's day.

With the Ötztal Super Skipass you can ski in all six ski areas of the Ötztal - including Sölden and Gurgl. The price depends on the date of purchase and demand, so early booking is particularly worthwhile. The ski pass is always cheaper online up to 5 days before the 1st day of skiing.
