The Hochzeiger-Jerzens is a beautiful little ski resort situated in the Tyrol valley. The resort features a nice amount of lifts and a good variety of runs, which cater predominantly for beginners and intermediates. Unfortunately the resort only offers a limited amount of advanced runs and experts should therefore go for the off-piste skiing area which offers a bit more of a challenge.
The resort also caters for snowboarders with a well equipped specialise boarding park and a halfpipe. The resort offers a very well equipped Apre Ski scene with numerous non-ski activities available for entertainment. The resort features a traditional Austrian bowling alley, a couple of indoor tennis courts, a large open-air swimming pool and terrace, as well as a heated outdoor swimming pool and spa equipped with a sauna.
There are also a couple of bars, nightclubs and shops available. |
