The Gitschberg Jochtal ski resort is served by 15 lifts and offers 25 pistes over a total of 55 kilometres at different levels of difficulty for seasoned skiers and beginners alike.

The Gitschberg Jochtal ski resort in detail

Of all the ski resorts in South Tyrol, the Gitschberg Jochtal ski resort is one of the most family-friendly. There are three children’s snow parks for a fun-filled day on the snow, and ski schools where children can learn the ropes from qualified ski instructors. If you’re after a timeless thrill, there are also four natural toboggan runs on which you can race each other to the finish line: the BRIMI Winter Run in Meransen, the Schilling toboggan run in Vals, a toboggan run in the village of Terenten and one that connects the Pertinger Alp to Terenten.

The Gitschberg Jochtal ski resort also offers plenty of options for winter walking, with a wide choice of well-signposted paths that we keep carefully manicured so you can focus on enjoying the view of snow-powdered peaks and tree tops.
