Immerse yourself in the mountain winter.
A throwback to the wild winters of bygone days. Soft snow clinging to nature like a protective blanket. The sunlight sparkling merrily on the white landscape. That’s what winter’s like in our beautiful Vent: natural and authentic. Thanks to its high-Alpine location at 1,880 metres above sea level, an unspoilt snowy paradise extends out around our mountaineering village, between some of the loftiest mountain peaks in the Alps. The opportunities? Endless. Just like the freedom that you’ll discover in Ötztal’s nature. Winter holidays in Tyrol are both relaxing and energising.
Skiing
Small but excellent: That’s our Vent ski resort, where you can still experience skiing away from the crowds. And yet it has everything: 15 kilometres of easy to moderately difficult descents, two chair lifts, two tow lifts, a ski school, and ski and snowboard hire. Plus, you can enjoy skiing bliss until the end of April. The Wildspitz lift and the Gampen lift are found right by our apartments in Vent. Simply put on your skis in our car park and off you go.
If you’re looking for a change of scenery, you’ll find it in Sölden ski resort, just 20 minutes away, which has gained international renown thanks to the annual ski world cup, and in Obergurgl-Hochgurgl ski resort, just 30 minutes away, both of which can be reached by car or ski bus.
Ski touring
Pristine mountain slopes, imposing rocky peaks, and enchanting peace: Just the thought of it puts a smile on ski touring fans’ faces. Almost nowhere else will you get as pure a winter experience as in the mountains around our mountaineering village. Put on your skis in front of our apartments in Vent and your adventure in the snow is ready to begin! Our highlight for you: Our family’s three mountain guides will be happy to inform you of the current avalanche warning level and give you advice when planning your tours.
Snowshoeing and winter hiking
15 kilometres of winter hiking trails lead through the peaceful white meadows and snow-covered pine forests against the backdrop of our fascinating Alpine landscape.
