Kinderland Feuerkogel
Franzi's Dragonpark

The extensive area for beginners and the lovingly designed kinderland Franzi's Dragonpark make it easy for those who are new to skiing to conquer the ski and snowboards.

For skiing pros

Ski runs and off piste ski route

It is not just beginner skiers who will find the best conditions on the Feuerkogel, there are also challenging slopes and exciting ski runs for pro skiers.

One particular challenge for expert-level skiers is the 6 km long, unprepared ski route into the valley.

Please note: With this ski route you are in open terrain, i.e. in an unsecured, unprepared area (off piste)! Downhill run on the unprepared ski route at your own risk!

Pure ski fun for the whole family

A snow-covered winter forest in the soft morning light. A narrow, clearly recognisable snowshoe trail runs between tall, snow-covered trees. A single person in winter clothing and snowshoes walks leisurely along the path. The snow is untouched, except for the trail she leaves behind. The camera remains still, slightly raised, and shows the scene from a medium distance. The hiker stops for a moment, looks to the left into the landscape and takes a deep breath. Silence lies over the scene - only the wind rustles gently in the treetops. The light falls through the branches, casting long, bluish shadows on the snow. The person continues on their way - calmly, evenly, completely immersed in the wintry surroundings. At the end, the image slowly fades out - leaving behind the peaceful expanse of the winter forest.
