On the slopes
As you'd expect, ski Söll and your ski holidays offer something for every level of skier - if you don't find what you want locally, you can head into the neighbouring resorts of the 'Kitzbümheler Alpen'. For beginers the gentle nursery slopes are based on the edge of the village. You also have the gondola that takes you up the Höhe Salve for some more gentle slopes and wide blues. Intermediates probably have the most pistes - and there's an excellent choice of blues and reds.
For experts there's not only some great marked pistes, but also the back of the Höhe Salve has some excellent runs and equally impressive off-piste if you dare! Boarders are very welcome in Söll although there is no terrain park. Freeriders can head to the Höhe Salve for pistes and off piste and the Westendorf terrain park is th eplace for freestylers.
Ski area :
If you ski Söll you are also in the ski region of SkiWelt along with the following resorts; Brixen im Thale, Ellmau, Going, Hopfgarten, Kelchsau, Kirchberg in Tirol, Scheffau, Söll, Westendorf

Off the slopes

hle. There are plenty of other activities to keep you busy including a sports centre with indoor and outdoor pools, and ice skating on Lake Moorsee.
WE LIKE
- Local slopes are the highest in the SkiWelt and north-facing, so they keep their snow relatively well
- Access to the SkiWelt meaning lift links to 9 other resorts for 279kms
- Pretty and traditional Tyrolean village with lively après-ski
|
WE DON'T LIKE
- Low altitude can mean poor snow - especially down in the resort
- Long walk or inadequate bus service between the village and the lifts if you are at the far end
- Close to home there's not much challenging marked piste and no terrain park
