The steepest slope in the Hinterstoder ski area
The Inferno
Steeper, longer, Inferno!
"Being brave doesn't mean not being afraid. It means doing something despite the fear!"
Do you agree? Then prove your courage! Over a distance of one kilometer and a maximum gradient of 70 percent. Because that's exactly what awaits you on the Inferno. A real challenge - even for brave and experienced skiers!
Where can you find the Inferno slope? The adventure slope is located directly at the Hösskogel.
Attention: This adventure slope is really only for experienced skiers and snowboarders!

The speed run
The thrill of speed!
Another highlight for all those who want to measure themselves - or rather their speed: the speed course at the Sonnkogel lift at the middle station. Here you can speed down the straight slope.
Accelerate from start to finish? Not necessarily, because it doesn't matter how long it takes you to complete the course. What counts is the speed at which you pass the sensor. What are you waiting for? It's time for a sporting comparison!
