The Ski Resort
Far away from mass tourism you will find the idyllic skiing area Grasgehren at the base of the Riedbergerhorn. All 11 kilometers of slopes are marked in blue or red and are therefore ideally suited for families and pleasure skiers. Visitors appreciate the clarity with the five lifts and the immediate vicinity of the ski school and cosy mountain hut.
Due to the location on a high basin at 1400 meters above sea level, snow-assured skiing pleasure is offered from the end of November until April. Grasgehren is also a federal base and venue for various national and international events in skicross and snowboardcross.
