The Ski Resort

The Jöchelspitze in the Tyrolean Lechtal offers a total of five kilometres of slopes. The skiing area is particularly popular with families and offers wide, perfectly groomed slopes for enjoyable skiing. The slopes are devided into blue and red runs, 2.5 kilometers each. The chairlift takes winter sports enthusiasts up to 1,800 metres, from where the descents lead down to the valley. There is also a practice lift where inexperienced skiers and snowboarders can make their first attempts on the boards. The local ski school offers assistance. 

In the nearby Holzgau there is another, smaller lift. The Gföllberglift opens up a blue and a red descent, on which beginners and families also feel very comfortable.
