Your ticket to happiness on the slopes – No matter if you are an early bird or late riser, on a family holiday or alone - our skipass options are as individual as your needs. With just one skipass you can conquer the slopes of Hochoetz and Kühtai and thus two ski areas for the price of one. You can also save cash as a family as children under 8 years ski for free if accompanied by a parent. If you are drawn to Hochoetz for winter and snowshoe hiking, you will get high up and down the mountain with single ride lift tickets. All skipasses are available on site and in the online ski ticket shop (with the exception of the Ötztal Super Skipass).
