Winter holidays in Ötztal & Gurgl ski area

Winter in Ötztal is
made of snow

And we have more than enough here in Gurgl. We are a region with absolute snow guarantee from mid-November to late April. This is mainly due to the high Alpine altitude between 1800 and 3080 meters. By booking scenic Hotel Alpenaussicht you have made the best decision for your winter holiday in Ötztal: we are only a few minutes' walk from the Hohe Mut mountain gondola which takes you up high in summer, and the Festkogl gondola - your direct connection to the Obergurgl-Hochgurgl ski area with 112 slope kilometers. Right at the heart of Obergurgl’s winter adventure world, at the same time in a quiet setting. Experience quiet winter romance against the white mountain backdrop. Surrounded by 250 summits beyond 3000 meters glowing in the evening light.

We love winter sports.

You probably too. That's why you spend your holidays where unforgettable sporty winter moments begin. At an altitude of 1914 meters, right on the ski slopes. There is even much more to discover than the Gurgl ski area: holders of the Ötztal Super Skipass can explore 363 slope kilometers spread over six ski areas within the valley. In other words: the entire range of skiing in Ötztal with just one skipass. But winter in Ötztal is more than just skiing and snowboarding. Explore nature from its most pristine side while snowshoeing and winter hiking, ski touring, tobogganing or on fresh powder slopes.
