Winter in the Pitztal
Thanks to the Pitztal Glacier, we offer 100% guaranteed snow from September to May!
The Gruppotel Alte Post is centrally located to the three ski areas :
Pitztal Glacier
Rifflsee mountain railways
Hochzeiger mountain railways
Anyone who thinks in Pitztal you can only ski and snowboard was mistaken.
The Pitztal is a winter sports destination that you won't find everywhere.
We offer a 21 km long cross-country skiing trail or a high altitude trail at 2,740 m that will leave you breathless.
Take the Wildspitzbahn up to 3,440m and offer a breathtaking view of the Alps .
Kilometers of winter hiking trails next to the Pitze stream.
We are considered THE ice climbing paradise in Tyrol, with over 45 frozen waterfalls .
Touring enthusiasts cannot decide which ski tour to take first.
Freeriders can enjoy slopes with untouched slopes and the finest powder snow.
Several toboggan runs, ice rinks, snowshoe trails through ice-covered gorges ...
On our in-house ice rink already has
one or the other hot ice hockey game took place.
We are happy to have ice skates in all sizes, ice hockey sticks and goals ready for you.
Opposite you will find two natural toboggan runs .
One of them is 2 km long and, in combination with a torchlight hike, is an unforgettable experience.
We'll provide you with double-seat sleds and torches
available free of charge.
The kids also have a lot of fun with the slide plates
while sliding in the snow right behind the house.
Or how about a torch-lit hike on one of the many starry nights.
The beginning
to the Tallanglaufloipe and the winter hiking trail
is right across the street.
I find the way to our little pilgrimage church Bichele very dreamy.
The bus stop for all ski buses and bus lines is right next to the Gruppotel. I would be happy to reserve the ski bus for you to the desired ski area in order to guarantee transport as a group.
TheKirschner ski rental is located right in the village - has very good winter sports equipment in the rental and offers its own tariffs especially for group travel and youth travel.
We are happy to help with the organization of the ski passes and can also order and pick up the lift tickets. Long queues at the cash desk are no longer necessary and you can get your ski passes in peace
distributed to the group the day before.

If the Pitztal is not enough for you in terms of kilometers of slopes,
I would like to introduce you to the Glacier Park Card for winter:
121 kilometers of slopes
76 runs
6 ski areas
1 ski pass
The Glacier Park Card Winter connects
the popular ski areas with just one ticket:
Pitztal Glacier, Rifflseebahn, Hochzeiger, Imster Bergbahnen, Kaunertal Glacier and Winterberg Fendels.
Our cross-country skiers and skaters also get their money's worth.
The entrance to the cross-country ski run is right across from the Alte Post group hotel.
The idyllic Tallanglaufloipe runs alongside the stream for a total of 21 km. There are always their own cross-country trails in the various hamlets.
With us you pay no usage fee for the entire 108 kilometers of cross-country trails.
Since cross-country skiing and skating can be very exhausting, I'll tell you about my sightseeing tour:
You take the ski bus to Mittelberg (at the very end of the valley) and skate the 12 km along the valley path to the Gruppotel.
Going down is just less strenuous and you
sees so much more.
With the Pitztal Leisure Pass, cross-country skiers and pedestrians who do not have a ski pass can also use the buses for free.
You will receive the Pitztal Leisure Pass
directly in the group hotel for
€ 5.00 / adult.
Children under 15 go free.

SLEDGING
Opposite you will find the 2 km long natural toboggan run.
You can get enough double-seat tobogganing for the whole group from us at the Gruppotel.
