A paradise for freeriders
Visit the picturesque village of Fieberbrunn in Tyrol, which offers over 270 kilometres of excellent slopes and hosts a world freeride skiing showcase.
A ski circus for everyone
Fieberbrunn has a large number of pistes of varying difficulty and over 100 lifts. With the Ski Alpin Card you can also use the pistes of the Zell am See and Kaprun area, and visit the mountain lakes, known together as the Skicircus Saalbach Hinterglemm Leogang. Experienced skiers can also enjoy freeriding and snowboarding in light powder snow.
Mountain lakes
In summer you can set out from the ski resort on a walk up to the crystal-clear Wildsee. Near it are a rope park and a summer toboggan run, which children are not the only ones to enjoy. Four cable cars also run across the whole area in summer, making it easier to get around. You can also visit another beautiful lake, Pillersee, near the town of St. Ulrich.
You can stay in the area's characteristic Alpine chalets and Pensionen, or use the camping zones in the summer months. For more demanding guests there are luxury boutique chalets and hotels with wellness. On the slopes and off them you can enjoy typical Tyrolean food and classic après-ski restaurants.
