Even more lifts, even more pistes! 

Two new lifts, additional pistes and a service road from the valley have been set up in the past year, with a total of 16.4 million Euro invested. This means that the Feuerkogel has gone from being a nice insider tip to a small, yet perfectly formed ski area for connoisseurs. Come and see for yourself!

The mountain’s calling!
For accident-free skiing and tobogganing pleasure, please pay attention to some safety tips beforehand:

Make sure you have the right equipment

  • Before each season you should have your skis and bindings inspected by an expert
  • Wear your helmet! Those of you who have a brain - protect it. It is not just during skiing, many accidents, which involve the head, also occur while tobogganing.
  • What is right for children can't be bad for adults. Adult skiers and snowboarders are just as prone to accidents as children. Set an example and always wear a helmet on the piste.

On the piste

  • Get warmed up, since when your body is warmed up your muscles react faster, which means many injuries to ligaments and joints can be prevented.
  • Do some playful exercises with your children, such as jumping jack or have a snowball fight. It’s a lot of fun and warms your body up
  • Since the effect of the warm up disappears quickly after sitting or standing for a long time, you should do your warm-up exercises after your lift journey
  • Take regular breaks. Accident statistics show a high correlation between the symptoms of fatigue, such as lack of concentration, and increased accident frequency.

You can also prevent accidents by adhering to a few piste rules:

  • Always look up before you set off
  • Don’t mistake a slope for a racing route
  • Don’t leave the secure pistes
  • Do not stand in a spot which is unclear
  • Give slower skiers right of way
  • Only go up/down the edge of the piste, and take a break
  • Don’t drink any alcohol (it reduces your ability to react and causes you to overestimate your own abilities)

Being safe is fun!
