Area Profile
A small traditional old and picturesque Tyrolean village with a long skiing tradition and a long season It's main off-shoot is a group of up-market hotels at Hochgurgl ( 2150m ). An eight-seater gondola connects the ski areas of Hochgurgl and Obergurgl.
Although not a top 'boarder destination, all of the slopes in Obergurgl -Hochgurgl are open to 'boarders. This can now be accessed by a high speed quad lift straight from the centre of Obergurgl. Indeed Obergurgl -Hochgurgl's rails and lifts (the majority chairs or gondolas) make free riding easy.
