Skiing and snowboarding in Finkenberg

Ski Information Beginners

An ideal area for novices, the nursery slopes are easily accessible and you will soon progress onto gentle blue runs at Hasenmulden, near the top of the Penken Mountain.

Ski Information Intermediates

The Penken slopes offer plenty of scope for intermediates from long meandering runs to tricky mogul fields, and there is the advantage that you can usually ski right back to the village at the end of the day. The 'Zillertal 3000 Pass' covers the whole Ziller Valley, an intermediate's paradise, with access to Hintertux, one of Austria's best glaciers.

Ski Information Advanced

Finkenberg's north-facing Nordhang runs offer challenging mogul fields as well as the infamous 'Harakiri' piste - the steepest pisted black run in Austria with a 78% gradient! Try the long and exhilarating Katzenmoos descent or go up the Gerent to tackle the bumps of the Schafskopf.

Ski Information Snowboarding

Finkenberg is part of the Zillertal valley which puts snowboarders of all standards in a superb situation. The Penkenjoch, above Mayrhofen (direct access from Finkenberg), offers brilliant freeriding with its rocky steeps and trees to snake through. The valley is also home to the internationally renowned Burton Park with table tops, rails, quarter pipes, fun boxes and kickers.
