Highlights at Turracher Höhe Ski Resort

NEW: WinterWonderLand – Winter Playground & Adventure World

This winter, Turracher Höhe gains a brand-new attraction: in the WinterWonderLand, a snowy clearing among the trees turns into an adventure world for the whole family. Kids whizz down snow slides, explore tunnels and play towers and have a great time in the snow. Igloos invite you to explore and linger, and the fire pit is the place where young and old gather to warm up and chat.

When darkness falls, light and projection art bathe the WinterWonderLand in a truly magical atmosphere, turning your evening at Turracher Höhe into an experience too.

Skiers, non-skiers or families with young children: the WinterWonderLand is the perfect place for a break away from the slopes.

Tobogganing the other way round! Every Tuesday and Thursday from 5:00 pm to 6:30 pm, the Übungswiese practice lift pulls you and your special toboggan comfortably uphill. At the top, a thrilling ride back down to the valley awaits. An adventure that delights young and old alike – and one you'll only find at Turracher Höhe.
