Take the high-tech gondola up<\/h2>\n<p>With 77 kilometres of pistes, five valley runs and 28 lifts at altitudes of up to 2,000 m, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/austria\/zell_am_see\/ski-area.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Schmittenh\u00f6he ski area<\/a> impresses winter sports enthusiasts with a varied skiing experience. And thanks to an amazing infrastructure, skiers enjoy pure comfort here. The &#8220;areitXpress&#8221; is an ultra-modern cable car that offers heated seats, an intercom system and free Wi-Fi in its 10-seater high-tech gondolas. However, all this has to be enjoyed quickly, as the ride, which starts at the valley station in the Sch\u00fcttdorf district of Zell, is over after just seven minutes. But nobody has to be sad about that, because from the mountain station at 2,000 metres, you can head straight onto the snow-covered slopes, with the picturesque panorama and Lake Zell at your feet.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"2-action-&amp;-fun-for-everyone\">2. Action &amp; fun for everyone<\/h2>\n<p>In the ski area on the &#8220;Schmitten&#8221;, young skiers can also have lots of fun away from the classic pistes. For example, there is the XXL Funslope, which consists of tunnels, waves and smaller steep turns and, at 1,300 metres, is the longest Funslope in the world! It runs partly through the forest, where various sound elements also await. Competitive winter sports enthusiasts should also take on the WISBI course (Ger. &#8220;wie schnell bin ich&#8221; = &#8220;how fast am I&#8221;) to measure their speed and perhaps even crank it up. And if you want to feel like a real racer, you can have yourself filmed on the Skimovie course.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tt-post-image-wrapper tt-post-image-wrapper-full\">\n            <div class=\"tt-image-copyright-container\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26734_shutterstock_1045789393-scr.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-wrapped=\"true\" class=\"wp-image-57173 size-Artikelbild_gro\u00df\" title=\"From Zell am See, winter sports enthusiasts can travel directly to the Schmittenh\u00f6he ski area on ultra-modern cable cars.\" src=\"https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26734_shutterstock_1045789393-scr-729x486.jpg\" alt=\"From Zell am See, winter sports enthusiasts can travel directly to the Schmittenh\u00f6he ski area on ultra-modern cable cars.\" width=\"729\" height=\"486\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26734_shutterstock_1045789393-scr-729x486.jpg 729w, https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26734_shutterstock_1045789393-scr-468x312.jpg 468w, https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26734_shutterstock_1045789393-scr-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26734_shutterstock_1045789393-scr-999x666.jpg 999w, https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26734_shutterstock_1045789393-scr-645x430.jpg 645w, https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26734_shutterstock_1045789393-scr-552x368.jpg 552w, https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26734_shutterstock_1045789393-scr-405x270.jpg 405w, https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26734_shutterstock_1045789393-scr-336x224.jpg 336w, https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26734_shutterstock_1045789393-scr-276x184.jpg 276w, https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26734_shutterstock_1045789393-scr-234x156.jpg 234w, https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26734_shutterstock_1045789393-scr-192x128.jpg 192w, https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26734_shutterstock_1045789393-scr-120x80.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1009px) 729px, (min-width: 819px) 594px, (min-width: 569px) 729px, (min-width: 449px) 468px, 348px\" \/><\/a><div class=\"tt-image-copyright\" data-image-id=\"57173\">\u00a9 ThreeRivers11\/Shutterstock<\/div>\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"tt-post-caption\">From Zell am See, winter sports enthusiasts can travel directly to the Schmittenh\u00f6he ski area on ultra-modern cable cars.<\/div>\n         <\/div > \n<h2 id=\"3-a-ski-resort-for-foodies\">3.

This makes the Schmittenh\u00f6he an ideal ski area for couples, as culinary delights are a top priority here. Skiers and snowboarders can look forward to a varied gastronomic offer that makes every stop at a mountain hut a highlight. Over 20 mountain restaurants on Zell am See&#8217;s local mountain provide hungry winter sports fans with classic delicacies from cheese platters to Kaiserschmarrn pancakes. Sunday is a very special gourmet day, however, when a dozen ski huts make guests&#8217; mouths water with regional specialities such as Pinzgauer Kasnock&#8217;n, Kaspresskn\u00f6dl, Gamssuppe or Bauernkrapfen.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tt-post-image-wrapper tt-post-image-wrapper-full\">\n            <div class=\"tt-image-copyright-container\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26684_shutterstock_1052183951-scr.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-wrapped=\"true\" class=\"wp-image-57174 size-Artikelbild_gro\u00df\" title=\"Soak up the sun and enjoy local specialities at the same time: Nowhere better than on the terraces of the ski huts\" src=\"https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26684_shutterstock_1052183951-scr-729x486.jpg\" alt=\"Soak up the sun and enjoy local specialities at the same time: Nowhere better than on the terraces of the ski huts\" width=\"729\" height=\"486\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26684_shutterstock_1052183951-scr-729x486.jpg 729w, https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26684_shutterstock_1052183951-scr-468x312.jpg 468w, https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26684_shutterstock_1052183951-scr-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26684_shutterstock_1052183951-scr-999x666.jpg 999w, https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26684_shutterstock_1052183951-scr-645x430.jpg 645w, https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26684_shutterstock_1052183951-scr-552x368.jpg 552w, https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26684_shutterstock_1052183951-scr-405x270.jpg 405w, https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26684_shutterstock_1052183951-scr-336x224.jpg 336w, https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26684_shutterstock_1052183951-scr-276x184.jpg 276w, https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26684_shutterstock_1052183951-scr-234x156.jpg 234w, https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26684_shutterstock_1052183951-scr-192x128.jpg 192w, https:\/\/www.snowtrex.co.uk\/magazine\/files\/2018\/10\/RS26684_shutterstock_1052183951-scr-120x80.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1009px) 729px, (min-width: 819px) 594px, (min-width: 569px) 729px, (min-width: 449px) 468px, 348px\" \/><\/a><div class=\"tt-image-copyright\" data-image-id=\"57174\">\u00a9 ThreeRivers11\/Shutterstock<\/div>\n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"tt-post-caption\">Soak up the sun and enjoy local specialities at the same time: Nowhere better than on the terraces of the ski huts<\/div>\n         <\/div > \n<h2 id=\"4-special-flair-thanks-to-art-on-the-mountain\">4.

For over 30 years, the &#8220;Gallery on the piste&#8221; has been a unique project that turns the natural surroundings of the &#8220;Schmitten&#8221; into an open-air exhibition space for art objects and sculptures. These are created by regional and international artists exclusively from local materials such as wood, stone and clay. There are now 23 works of art spread across the mountain and can be viewed not only in winter, but all year round with free admission.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"5-kitzsteinhorn-right-next-door\">5.
