The most silent ski lift takes you everywhere, keeps you warm and fits into any landscape: two legs, a pair of skis and skins.
Our beautiful valleys, plateaus and mountains combine to form a fantastic area for backcountry skiing.
The Carnic Ridge around Kartitsch, the Lienz Dolomites and the Gailtal Alps are popular with hikers and rock climbers in summer.
However in the last years, backcountry skiers discovered the unspoilt beauty of this area. The surrounding mountains offer great powder skiing in winter and corn snow skiing in spring. If you appreciate the solitude of a pristine landscape free from crowds and noise, you will find it here.
The following ski tours are just a few examples.
The natural beauty of the Kartitsch countryside is the reason for backcountry skiers coming here.
The Carnic Alps with their gigantic summits, the Gailtal Alps with their wide-open spaces and the Lienz Dolomites are great places for backcountry skiing.
Enjoy the powder after a rest at the summit cross.
