Between Live Music, Sports Events and Slope Fun in Silvretta Montafon

Sporty, Sportier, Silvretta Montafon

With 140 kilometers of slopes and the longest valley run in Vorarlberg, Silvretta Montafon is the most athletic ski resort in the region. Anyone who follows the motto “Never ski the same slope twice” can really let loose on the Montafon Totale Ski route. Adrenaline seekers will get their money’s worth on the “Black Scorpion” descents and in the varied freeride terrain.

For plenty of variety, cross tracks have been created throughout the resort, suitable for all skill levels. The Monti Lux Cross, Kids Cross and Family Cross offer action-packed fun for children and families. More ambitious riders can race each other on the Freeride Cross and Race Cross. The offer is complemented by the Snowpark Montafon, which impresses with its obstacles and perfectly shaped lines.

Those looking to wind down after a day on the slopes are invited every Friday from February 20 to enjoy a sundowner in the new wine bar & lounge “Hanglage,” located upstairs in the Kapell restaurant. Fine drinks, breathtaking sunsets and atmospheric music set the perfect tone for the weekend.
