Ski area Großglockner / Heiligenblut - TOP OF AUSTRIA
Define freedom!

There’s nothing quite like skiing amidst Austria’s most breathtaking mountains. The 3798-metre-high Grossglockner dominates the spectacular scenery; the ski terrain is vast, rich in diversity and equipped with comfortable, modern lift facilities.

Whether you prefer groomed slopes or off-piste runs: Heiligenblut will make your heart beat faster.

Since the 1960s, Heiligenblut has been a paradise for skiing aficionados and winter sports enthusiasts. What sets it apart from other ski resorts is that the focus is not merely limited to state-of-the art facilities, but extends to a genuine love for nature and a desire to be as one with the wild.

It is an indescribable feeling, to dive into the immensity of a mountainscape overlooked by the Grossglockner. At the same time, our guests appreciate how straightforward it is to find your way around this snowcovered wonderland of ski-runs and pistes in the heart of the Hohe Tauern National Park.

The freeride arena and its sectors.

The freeride arena is unsecured, free ski room and is divided into sectors A to F.

SECTOR A - SCHARECK

The Schareck is the central mountain of the ski area and can be accessed from almost all sides.

SECTOR B - FALLBICHL

This sector is very snow reliable due to its height and exposure. The finest powder can still be found here in March.

SECTOR C - LIVESTOCK

Due to its height, this sector is very snow-sure and, if the avalanche situation allows it, it can be used throughout the winter.

SECTOR D - FLEISSALM

This sector is very diverse. While steep, alpine terrain predominates in the upper area, wide, gentle areas can be found below.

SECTOR E - TAUERNTAL

This is challenging terrain. Downhill runs in this sector require a lot of experience and good orientation.
