Altitude, access and value

Vertical range, lift access and terrain value.

High-alpine resilienceStrong vertical rangeDense lift accessHigh published capacity
Altitude resilience The high-alpine top elevation is a structural advantage for retaining colder snow, although exposure can increase wind and visibility sensitivity. The 1750 m vertical range also creates meaningful temperature and snow-quality differences from valley to summit.
Lift infrastructure About 3.0 slope km per lift indicates a relatively dense access network. Published hourly capacity is 41,857 persons, about 1993 persons/hour per lift and 654 per slope kilometre. The lift system totals 23.8 km, averaging about 1.1 km of lift line per lift.

Wow, what a mind blowing vacation filled with high alpine glacier riding. I'm accustomed to snowboarding at Whistler, B.C., Canada, and generally feel lucky to have the privelege. But after hitting ..

Resort profile

What makes this resort different

High-altitude snow anchor

Mountain character

Hintertux is best understood as a high-altitude snow anchor: altitude, upper-mountain terrain and snow-reliability evidence dominate the structural profile.

Top elevation 3,250 m

Snow-reliability 91/100

The trade-off

Trips where upper-mountain altitude and snow resilience matter most.

Exposure and high-alpine weather can still interrupt otherwise resilient snow conditions.
