On this page, you can discover all that awaits you on a winter holiday in the Brixental Valley.

The two Brixental Valley ski areas are located at an ideal altitude of up to 2,000 m above sea level. The region has guaranteed snowfall due to the natural geographic barrier formed by the Tyrolean Northern Alps, which causes clouds to stick around the main Alpine ridge in the Kitzbühel Alps. The region also has snowmaking facilities, which combined with high-tech GPS depth measurement systems, enables efficient snow management on the gentle mountains of the Kitzbühel Alps. In ideal conditions, more than 70% of all ski slopes can be covered with snow and made ready for use in just three days. With such an amazing snow guarantee, there's nothing to stand in the way of an unforgettable ski holiday.

The Brixental Valley connects two of the largest and best ski areas in Austria: The SkiWelt Wilder Kaiser - Brixental with 284 km of slopes and the Kitzbühel/Kirchberg ski area with 234 km of fantastic slopes. The villages of Brixen im Thale, Kirchberg in Tirol and Westendorf are right in the heart of the combined ski region. The two areas are linked by a ski bus, which runs a regular service between KiWest station and Pengelstein station in Kirchberg/Aschau (journey time approx. 5 minutes). The Super Ski Card, your all-in-one lift pass, ensures a smooth transfer.
