Your ski area in the Wilder Kaiser region!
A panorama like that of the Wilder<br />
Kaiser region is no everyday occurrence.<br />
Every view is an incredibly special moment. Stop and<br />
breathe in the fresh snowy air. Recharge all your senses.<br />
Ice crystals sparkling in the sunshine.<br />
Sweeping turns on wide slopes, freshly<br />
groomed ski runs as far as the skis can travel.<br />
Rustic mountain huts and fresh Tirolean<br />
cuisine to warm the body and soul. That’s<br />
skiing in the Wilder Kaiser region.<br />
Hike unguided on scenic winter trails,<br />
the snow crunching underfoot. Discover<br />
unspoilt, white forests on snowshoes by the<br />
light of the full moon. Marvel at the landscape<br />
from the comfort of a horse-drawn<br />
sleigh, wrapped in a lamb fleece blanket.<br />
Quiet walks by the frozen lake, squeals of<br />
delight on the bends on the toboggan run.<br />
Friendly get-togethers with the expertly<br />
managed guest programme. Cosy village<br />
evenings, skiing show, ski hut parties and<br />
stylish après-ski - this is what winter’s like<br />
in the Wilder Kaiser region.<br />
Always an unforgettable experience!<br />

The Kaiser in his winter finery.<br />
A mountain, a monument in white, wreathed in<br />
clouds. Before it, the towns of Ellmau, Going, Scheffau<br />
and Söll. Like an open air stage in the snow, on which the<br />
Wilder Kaiser region’s winter plays many a unique part.<br />

SkiWelt slopes<br />
The SkiWelt has three speed sections<br />
alongside its many runs. The longest at<br />
600 metres is in Ellmau-Going near the<br />
Almbahn chairlift (98). The Sk<strong>im</strong>ovie<br />
route in Scheffau lets you feel like a racer<br />
on the slalom slope and films you as you<br />
go. SkiWelt tours can be discovered in both<br />
clockwise and anti-clockwise directions.<br />
Action-packed ski night<br />
Ellmau Ski Night<br />
After the last descent into the valley, the fun<br />
on the slopes continues every Monday with<br />
the Ellmau Ski Night. Locals and visitors<br />
meet on the Stanglleit slope in Ellmau from<br />
8:30 p.m. The huge après-ski party, which<br />
features fantastic music, a great atmosphere<br />
and stalls offering warming mulled wine, has<br />
been a firm fixture in the winter events calendar<br />
of the Wilder Kaiser region for years.<br />
Alpeniglu village<br />
Alpeniglu® village<br />
A fairy tale world of ice and snow –<br />
the village of 18 igloos at the Hochbrixen<br />
mountain station, right in the middle of<br />
SkiWelt, can be reached by gondola from<br />
Brixen <strong>im</strong> Thale in 8 minutes or by ski.<br />
The snow village boasts a hotel, a church, a<br />
restaurant, a bar and much more. Spending<br />
the night in a two-person igloo is a very special<br />
experience and puts the perfect finishing<br />
touch on the special dinner (Weds, Sat).<br />
Joyful winter village evening<br />
Scheffau<br />
<strong>Winter</strong> Village Evening<br />
In winter, live bands put you in the party<br />
mood in the music pavilion every Wednesday<br />
evening from 7:00 p.m., while mulled<br />
wine and fresh pastries warm you from the<br />
inside. It’s the perfect setting to enjoy the<br />
winter air under the stars in good company.<br />
Scheffau Village Evenings – when guests<br />
become friends!<br />
Fun parks<br />
Fun and snow parks<br />
Freestylers certainly get their money’s<br />
worth here, too. On skis or on boards, snow<br />
acrobats can get their kicks in the three fun<br />
parks at SkiWelt Wilder Kaiser-Brixental.<br />
Crazy Kangaroo Funpark, Skiparcours<br />
Hans <strong>im</strong> Glück, Snowpark and Funny<br />
Bird Slope in Söll, Intersport Kaiserpark<br />
Ellmau at the Tanzboden downhill run and<br />
Boarder‘s Playground, Mini Playground<br />
and then Big Playground in Westendorf<br />
with Public Pro Park.<br />
Skiing fun even at night<br />
Skiing at night<br />
Every winter, the Wilder Kaiser community<br />
of Söll at the foot of the Hohe Salve is<br />
transformed into a white arena both day<br />
and night (Wed-Sat). The largest night ski<br />
area in Tirol opens 10 kilometres of floodlit<br />
slopes. The longest night-t<strong>im</strong>e slope in<br />
Austria provides unforgettable hours of<br />
skiing until the late evening, its valley run<br />
floodlit until 10:30 p.m. And once you have<br />
removed your skis, it’s not far to go to enjoy<br />
some après-ski fun.<br />

Public transport at Wilder Kaiser. The cable cars are<br />
easily accessible even without a car. The free ski buses<br />
operating in the Wilder Kaiser region provide a quick and<br />
easy way to travel to the cable cars and village centres.<br />
KaiserBad Ellmau. The Wilder Kaiser region even<br />
has something to satisfy water lovers and cl<strong>im</strong>bers in<br />
winter. The KaiserBad Ellmau is the perfect place to have<br />
fun and relax whatever the weather.<br />
Ellmi’s Friends water play area<br />
Cl<strong>im</strong>bing hall<br />
Sauna and spa<br />
Ski bus<br />
Free ski buses bring you quickly and easily<br />
from countless stops in the villages and<br />
every large hotel to the cable car valley<br />
stations. The Going ski bus travels to both<br />
the Astbergbahn lift (Going) and Hartkaiserbahn<br />
lift (Ellmau).<br />
There are many bus services in Ellmau<br />
that take you to the Hartkaiserbahn gondola<br />
lift every 15 minutes. In addition to the ski<br />
buses in Scheffau, there is also a slope from<br />
the village centre to the valley station, and<br />
in Söll, you can ski right up to the village<br />
entrance (roundabout) after the day’s skiing.<br />
Those in the know leave their gear in the<br />
ski depot at the lift so they can get to their<br />
accommodation in comfortable shoes and<br />
without lugging around any bulky equipment.<br />
There’s also a free ski bus for guests<br />
staying near the romantic Hintersteiner See,<br />
high above Scheffau. As the rather narrow<br />
and somet<strong>im</strong>es steep road is often difficult<br />
to drive with a car in winter, the bus will<br />
take you from the lake to the valley and the<br />
Scheffau lift and back again.<br />
<strong>Winter</strong>KaiserJet<br />
NEW: free KaiserJet in winter too!<br />
In 2018/19, the popular „KaiserJet“ regional<br />
bus will shuttle back and forward between<br />
Going, Ellmau, Scheffau and Söll for the first<br />
t<strong>im</strong>e in winter.<br />
The bus will call at the cable car valley<br />
stations, village centres, the KaiserBad (indoor<br />
pool, wellness area, cl<strong>im</strong>bing hall and<br />
indoor tennis court) as well as the winter<br />
hiking and cross-country trails.<br />
The service will be provided using a midibus<br />
with 12 seats and 18 standing places. For this<br />
first winter it might be full at peak t<strong>im</strong>es; in<br />
which case, we apologise for any inconvenience.<br />
The <strong>Winter</strong> KaiserJet can be used free of<br />
charge by locals and guests holding a valid<br />
Wilder Kaiser GuestCard or ski pass. It can<br />
be used with or without ski equipment.<br />
Dogs must wear a muzzle and be kept on a<br />
lead.<br />

Sw<strong>im</strong>ming &<br />
children<br />
At the KaiserBad Ellmau, the Ellmi’s Friends<br />
indoor adventure pool and sauna turn a day at<br />
the pool into fun for all the family. Situated at<br />
the foot of the Wilder Kaiser mountain range<br />
in Tirol, the large complex offers something<br />
for everyone. From the indoor adventure<br />
pool, parents and children can sw<strong>im</strong> directly<br />
into the heated outdoor pool, where the water<br />
is a comfortable 30°C. The Ellmi’s Friends<br />
adventure area is guaranteed to keep children<br />
entertained. The children’s area has been<br />
generously extended to include numerous<br />
fun and play areas. From water cannons and a<br />
witch’s house to a jungle bridge, children will<br />
have a great t<strong>im</strong>e at Ellmi’s Friends.<br />
Sliding fun for the little ones! Few things<br />
are more exciting for children than experiencing<br />
the thrill of slides for the first t<strong>im</strong>e.<br />
With the turbo and children’s slides, crawling<br />
tubes, cl<strong>im</strong>bing frame and net tunnels leading<br />
to the action podium and tipping barrel, there<br />
is more than enough to keep them amused.<br />
At Ellmi’s Friends in the KaiserBad, children<br />
receive a royal welcome.<br />
Cl<strong>im</strong>bing<br />
Anyone who wants to take a break from<br />
the water can work off some energy in the<br />
cl<strong>im</strong>bing hall. Whether you’re a beginner<br />
or seasoned pro looking for somewhere to<br />
train, the newly built indoor cl<strong>im</strong>bing centre<br />
provides the ideal conditions and plenty<br />
of space for you to try out your skills.<br />
The centre provides a cl<strong>im</strong>bing area of<br />
805 m² at a height of up to 16 m and a floor<br />
space of<br />
173 m². It features around 100 routes<br />
varying in difficulty from 3 to 10. Of these<br />
routes, 35 lines can be cl<strong>im</strong>bed s<strong>im</strong>ultaneously.<br />
Safety is of utmost <strong>im</strong>portance to<br />
the centre, which is why it is equipped with<br />
two Toppas safety machines. It also boasts a<br />
small bouldering and warm-up area.<br />
Tennis Centre<br />
The two indoor courts are the perfect place<br />
for tennis lovers.<br />
Spa and sauna<br />
Keeping your body and soul in harmony<br />
with the elements is one way of boosting<br />
health and relaxation. What could be more<br />
pleasant than spending some t<strong>im</strong>e looking<br />
after your own health and well-being in a<br />
completely tranquil environment?<br />
With its panorama sauna made from<br />
stone pine, natural brine steam bath and<br />
herbal steam bath, the spa facilities create<br />
a true haven of relaxation. Made from a<br />
material traditionally used in the Alps, the<br />
unique stone pine panorama sauna releases<br />
a pleasant aroma. By creating a high level<br />
of humidity and heat, the natural brine<br />
steam bath and herbal steam bath clear the<br />
airways, <strong>im</strong>prove circulation and strengthen<br />
your <strong>im</strong>mune system.<br />
The infrared cabins, some with salt mist,<br />
offer deep relaxation and the enlarged log<br />
cabin sauna with its crushed ice machine<br />
is an absolute treat. The relaxation areas,<br />
including the Kaiser terrace, hay barn and<br />
sauna bar, have something for every sauna<br />
aficionado.<br />
Tip: Avoid the busy period between<br />
9 a.m. and 11 a.m. by starting your day of skiing even<br />
earlier – you won’t regret it.<br />

The Wilder Kaiser region is home to a<br />
wealth of skiing and snowboarding specialists.<br />
Newcomers to winter sports can<br />
find the perfect partners to help them carve<br />
their first turns in the snow among the 9<br />
ski schools in the villages of Ellmau, Going,<br />
Scheffau and Söll. Highly qualified ski<br />
instructors draw on decades of experience<br />
and use the latest teaching methods to give<br />
beginners a feel for their chosen sport and<br />
to help them become confident skiers or<br />
snowboarders.<br />
The region’s schools are also on hand<br />
to help anyone returning to the slopes to<br />
quickly get back into the swing of things.<br />
And to help little budding skiers find their<br />
feet and have fun on the snow, all ski<br />
schools in the Wilder Kaiser region run<br />
their own children’s skiing lessons. At the<br />
KinderKaiserland Scheffau children’s ski<br />
school, children as young as two are put on<br />
the right track by learning through play using<br />
the MiniCarver equipment, which does<br />
not require any ski boots. Special practice<br />
slopes and lifts create a “growing slope”,<br />
providing the ideal conditions to accustom<br />
young skiers gently to the sport. From<br />
here, they will soon be ready to ski to their<br />
heart’s content.<br />

A guided snowshoe hike through fresh<br />
powder snow in the picturesque landscape<br />
of the northern Kitzbühel Alps and beneath<br />
the snow-covered slopes of the stunning<br />
Kaisergebirge mountain range is an essential<br />
part of any winter holiday in the region.<br />
Not only does it gently get your circulation<br />
going, it also leaves you with some unforgettable<br />
pictures that last a lifet<strong>im</strong>e. It’s always<br />

Tip: there are two easy beginner’s circuits<br />
in Ellmau and Scheffau, perfect for trying<br />
out snowshoe hiking. If you want yet more<br />
extra-special experiences, why not try full<br />
moon showshoe hiking or the weekly evening<br />
guided snowshoe hike in Going?<br />
For your safety<br />
Whatever the weather, avalanche danger<br />
level and snow conditions: solo snowshoe<br />
hiking is at your own risk. A guided snowshoe<br />
hike is a safer and also often more<br />
attractive option – find out more in the<br />
guest programme brochure.<br />
The right equipment<br />
Appropriate snowshoes for your weight<br />
and height are necessary in addition to your<br />
usual winter gear (see p. 15). Sturdy boots or<br />

Tobogganing – off-piste winter fun! Family-friendly<br />
n<br />
toboggan runs are just the place to build up some<br />
speed and put the finishing touch on your winter holiday in<br />
the Wilder Kaiser mountains. There’s fun and excitement<br />
at every turn!<br />

n<br />
Astberg<br />
A mountain with lots of<br />
tobogganing options and<br />
excellent places to take a<br />
break.<br />
The Wilder Kaiser region has long been a<br />
popular place for tobogganing thanks to its<br />
natural toboggan runs. More than 12 km of<br />
toboggan routes divided into four toboggan<br />
runs, some of which may be covered in<br />
artificial snow, ensure you can truly get up to<br />
speed. Toboggan fans can really get into the<br />
swing of things in the Wilder Kaiser mountains<br />
– on romantic runs on forest paths like<br />
the Tannbichl run in Going, or the moderately<br />
challenging Astberg run towards Ellmau<br />
and Going. Little scenes are set up along the<br />
Hexenritt run in Söll to surprise you along<br />
the way and the Söll Mondrodelbahn moonlight<br />
toboggan run is ideal for families as it is<br />
8 metres wide and boasts 4 discovery points.<br />
Ellmau Going<br />
If you want to spend a relaxing evening in<br />
a mountain hut, the illuminated Astberg<br />
toboggan run will get you back safe and<br />
sound to the valley until midnight, or the<br />
Hexenritt until 2 a.m.!<br />

The starting point for an uphill hike with<br />
your toboggan is at the Ellmau Parish<br />
Church. From there, follow the road towards<br />
the Brenner Alm mountain hut until<br />
you come to Hausberg mountain. The easier<br />
option is to catch the Astbergbahn chairlift<br />
or take a taxi up the mountain. One at the<br />
top, you can grab a bite in one of the huts in<br />
the area and then zoom down the fast, 4.5<br />
kilometre toboggan run.<br />
A fork in the run about two-thirds of the<br />
way down gives you the choice between<br />
going right towards Going and the Astbergbahn<br />
chairlift valley station, or left to<br />
the Hotel der Bär in Ellmau. Hop on your<br />
toboggan and enjoy an exhilarating winter<br />
day in snow-covered nature – day or night,<br />
fun is always guaranteed!<br />

This second toboggan run on the<br />
Hohe Salve mountain starts just beneath the<br />
Alpengasthof Hochsöll inn. It follows<br />
a fantastic course through the forest and<br />
truly lives up to its name. You need a bit of<br />
courage to hurtle down the fast-paced route<br />
and lean properly into the bends. The 3.8<br />
kilometre Hexenritt or Witches’ Ride finishes<br />
at the Söll cable car valley station. Some<br />
witchcraft along the route provides a few<br />
surprises. The toboggan run is equipped<br />
with a permanent snow-making system.<br />
From Wednesday to Saturday, you can take<br />
the cable car to the start of the course until<br />
9:30 p.m. And anyone who wants to spend<br />
a bit longer in a mountain hut at the top has<br />
until 1:00 a.m. to safely descend the mountain<br />
under the floodlights. So give your<br />
sledge a push start, jump on and off you go!<br />

It’s as if the gentle hills of the Söllandl valley<br />
at the foot of the Wilder Kaiser region were<br />
made for cross-country skiing. Beginners<br />
and advanced skiers have plenty of routes to<br />
explore on the more than 60 kilometres of<br />
perfectly prepared trails on the sun-drenched<br />
plains between the four villages of the Kaiser<br />
region – Going, Ellmau, Scheffau and Söll.<br />
Whether you are looking to follow the classic<br />
technique and slide through the winter landscape<br />
or take on the more fast-paced skating<br />
technique, the interconnected trails in the<br />
four villages mean that cross-country skiing<br />
in the valleys of the Wilder Kaiser region<br />
virtually knows no bounds. What’s more, the<br />
famous mountain range provides a spectacular<br />
backdrop to all the tracks. And once<br />
you’ve gained momentum, you’ll find your<br />
skis going at good speed in the valley!<br />
Please observe the FIS trail rules displayed<br />
and pay attention to the signs put up on all<br />
cross-country trails and at the start of the trails.<br />
