SLEDGE RUNS IN ZILLERTAL

Sledding on Bichlalm

Bichlalm is in Hintertux at an altitude of 1.695 m and it is the perfect destination for enthusiastic sledders during the daytime or in the evening because the 3 km long sledge run at Bichlalm is illuminated. After a 50 minutes long climb, Tyrolean specialties and a sharp descent is waiting for all sledders.

Our tip: Enjoy the fantastic glacier panorama from the sun terrace. The climb is worth for this fantastic view of the Hintertux Glacier

You can use the hut taxi if you prefer relaxing after skiing: Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday at 19:10 and 20:00 from Hintertux!

Sleigh ride from the Höllenstein HutFrom Tux-Lanersbach you reach the hut, which is situated at 1.740 m. Enjoy the ascent of about 80 minutes while exercising at the same time or take a taxi. Night-owls feels good here too: 4 km long sledge run is illuminated and leads straight to Juns or Tux-Lanersbach. Do you prefer sledding down the mountain with the first light of dawn? The Höllenstein Hut also offers accommodation, so nothing can stop you from sledding in the early morning. Personally managed by the Erler family, the Höllenstein Hut offers the finest Zillertal specialties. Tip: Small mountain farmers’ museum in the hut.

There's a safety extra on this track to ensure that it's safe in the valley: The special sledge run illumination shows narrow points and speed routes. It’s fun!

  • Red: Reduce speed, follow tight curves, control your speed "consciously"!
  • Yellow: Increased awareness, distance to the person in front, sledding on sight!
  • Green/White: Let the sled go, adjust your speed accordingly!

Grieralm – sledding in the nature paradise

The ascent to the Grieralm is something truly special: You go up to 1.787 m altitude from Juns. After about 90 minutes long climb through the forest, a marvelous plateau opens up with the Grieralm and the Griersee. In the middle of this picturesque landscape you have the best view of the snow-covered Hintertux Glacier.
The wonder continues also in the hut: Fascinating parlors that are hand-carved by the last host. Each one of them is designed differently and decorated with care. Especially Adlerstube is a feast for the eyes!

After a fine Tyrolean snack, the 5 km long, illuminated sledge run goes down at night. You don’t have to bring your own sledge. Renting a sledge: € 5,00
