Austria's highest resort
Winter vacation in Kühtai, Austria's highest resort
The fact that guests of the Tyrolean ski resort of Kühtai are particularly keen to reach high altitudes is not just a rumor - after all, the village of 12 souls is situated at an impressive 2,020 meters above sea level, making it Austria's highest-altitude resort, and only half an hour's drive from Innsbruck.
And because in the former "Chutay", as it was still called in the 13th century, mountain and village are very close together, guests are also spared long distances from the hotel to the ski slope: Just get out of the house, strap on your skis and into the white pleasure! A total of almost 40 kilometers of ski and snowboard slopes in top condition and - at an altitude of over 2,000 meters above sea level - with a 100 percent snow guarantee from December to May are waiting to be skied right outside the hotel door.
Skiing and snowboarding in Kühtai
The most beautiful thing about the Kühtai ski area with its total of 12 lifts, however, is that there are no waiting times at the lifts here - no wonder with a total transport capacity of 16,000 people per hour. Those who also like to turn night into day on the two planks can indulge in night skiing on Kühtai's slopes every Wednesday and Saturday thanks to 10,000 volts of powerful lighting. The 2.5-kilometer-long, well-lit toboggan run also provides variety at night and guarantees night owls carefree fun while tobogganing in Kühtai.
All those who prefer to be off the slopes will certainly find the right tour among the varied touring options; with a length of one to six hours, many of Kühtai's trails and ski tours lead into the mountain solitude, the highest up to 3,000 meters.
