Ski Area Mölltaler Gletscher
With the lift pass "Ski Hit", you have access to 389 km of wonderful pistes in East Tyrol's 8 ski areas (see ski region). The charming village of Mallnitz, at the foot of the Ankogel, is a well-kept secret for families. In the large ski surface at the Köfel lifts in the valley, even beginners will quickly get the hang of the curves. The youngsters can count on Pinguin Bobo and his ski school to learn the basics. The local mountain Ankogel (1.267-2.636 m) is high on the list of favorite ski areas in Austria, with 35 km of pistes and enchanting descents. Above all, the wide, free peak pistes with marvellous views all the way to the Grossglockner and the Dolomites, as well as the 7 km-long valley descent toward Mallnitz with 1,349 m difference of elevation have real potential to become addictive! On the Mölltaler Glacier (2,100 m - 3, 122 m), many beginners from the Ski and Board Academy have their first ride. With 71 km of glacier pistes and 16 km of variable descents, ''Mölli'' is there to be enjoyed by all types of skiers and boarders. A total of 9 modern lifts, including the underground Mölltal-Express, will take you comfortably to the glacier at Schareck. The treeless ''Cinemascope Pistes'' lure in swarms of carvers. If you really want to feel the burn, take the 7 km-long, highest altitude FIS run of Carinthia on the Mölltal Glacier. The Snowboard Fun-Park with boarder cross, jumps, and wave-run provides fun and action for snowboarders. A special highlight for experts is the black, 7 km long FIS-piste named "Eissee"!
