Ski area Patscherkofel
Innsbruck's Olympic mountain Patscherkofel has already paved the way to success for many winter sports greats and today offers ideal conditions for everyone, from beginners to experts. Six lifts take guests up to an altitude of 1,965 metres. From there, a total of 19 kilometres of piste in varying degrees of difficulty lead down to 1,009 metres into the valley, making every descent a special experience. There is also a modern ten-person gondola lift and an illuminated toboggan run.
The ski area is particularly family-friendly: in Kofele's Kinderland right at the valley station, near the sun terrace of the "Das Hausberg" restaurant, the little ones can playfully gain their first experience in the snow in three different practice areas. Parents can relax and enjoy the view or watch from the terrace.
Those who want to get active themselves will find the right challenge with more demanding pistes such as the Olympic downhill run. The sunny terrain also offers a fantastic panoramic view over Innsbruck and the Stubai and Inn valleys - ideal conditions for a successful day's skiing.

Night skiing Patscherkofel
The piste in Igls doesn't always end at nightfall. Night skiing is becoming increasingly popular and is being offered by more and more lifts, including in Igls. As in many ski areas in Austria, there are also floodlit sections of piste here. The Patscherkofel illuminates around 1 kilometre of the Heiligwasser piste for night owls. The Olex Restaurant is also open at these times. Anyone who has never tried night skiing should pay this ski area a visit in the evening. It's a special experience that will leave you wanting more.Après ski Patscherkofel
To round off a successful day of skiing, various small pubs await you in Igls. Here you can reflect on your experiences with cool drinks and delicious food.
If you are looking for a more active end to the day or an alternative to alpine sports, the area around the Stubai and Inntal valleys offers countless hiking trails where you can explore with or without snowshoes. There are numerous toboggan runs in the area for all sledging enthusiasts and the Olympic bobsleigh and toboggan run is an absolute highlight for all adrenaline junkies. Inexperienced guests can whizz down the run in a guest bobsleigh with a professional guide and, depending on the weather, you can even get into a wok. This is not for the faint-hearted.
If you feel more like dancing late into the night, we recommend a trip to the Tyrolean capital of Innsbruck, which leaves nothing to be desired with its various bars, pubs and discos. You're sure not to get bored here!
