    Ischgl Snowpark on the Austrian side

    Measuring at over 1,000 metres in length, Ischgl Snowpark is one of Europe’s longest freestyle terrain parks. Indeed, according to its own information, it is “possibly the longest terrain park in the Alps”. There are two separate areas to explore:
    The upper VELLIL Park Area at 2,600m is dedicated to beginners and advanced skiers. This park area offers up five lines overall:

    • ROLLER CROSS line with 6 wave roller elements
    • LARGE kicker line with 10 jumps and corner features
    • MEDIUM kicker line with 10 jumps, corner und wallride features
    • Jib line with 14 boxes and pipeslide features
    • SMALL kicker line with 6 jumps and wave roller features

     

    The IDALP Park Area, at 2,450m, is split into three zones:

    • The “Kingsizepark” (Pro Level) where pros can hit tricks and shred at world-class level. This park draws freestyle stars from all around the globe.
    • The “Publicpark” (intermediate to pro level), where daredevils can take on the two Medium Quattro kicker lines (public 8m and rookie 5m) as well as a rail line
    • The “Beginnerpark” with a roller line including 6 jib features and 4 tabletops


    The “Public Bagjump”, a huge airbag, is a fun highlight in the lower section of the park – a great opportunity to hone the tricks you don’t dare try on the snow.

    Samnaun’s Obstacle Freestyle Board Park on the Swiss side

    The “Obstacle Freestyle Board Park” in the Samnaun area is the Swiss answer to its big brother in Ischgl. This park is primarily geared up to advanced boarders and freeskiers. The park is located somewhat to the west of the Alp Trider Eck lifts and also offers several unique obstacles, such as barrels for jibbing.

    If you like to spend time in the fun park, Ischgl has a lot to offer. Ischgl itself describes it as a paradise for freestylers and jumpers. There are huge jumps built there and an air cushion prepa... Read complete review

    Freestylers are rather not so well served in Ischgl. In our group there are only skiers, so I can judge the program that is offered badly. But I think that this offer is better in other ski regions. Especially since there are relatively few freestylers on the slopes.

    The Funpark is located in the area of Velillbahn and Flimjochbahn and is very viellfätig with sufficient snow conditions. Every year there is something new.

    Well prepared halfpipe and fun park!
    Snowboarders are also fully at their expense in the beautiful winter sports area around the Swiss Samnaun and the Austrian Ischgl. Besides the fun park and the professionally groomed halfpipe besid... Read complete review
