As the highest ski area in the Mühlviertel, Hochficht reaches up to 1338 meters above sea level. Thanks to its location, it is quite snow-sure for a ski area outside the Alps and can turn into a true winter wonderland.
If the snow does fail to arrive, all the slopes in the ski area can be covered with technical snow. The season usually lasts from the beginning of December until the middle/end of March.
