The Höss

The Höss, a jewel of the alpine landscape in Hinterstoder, is a paradise for all lovers of skiing. With a route network of more than 40 kilometres, Höss offers downhill runs in all levels of difficulty, which establishes the area as an ideal place for skiers of every level.


Only 5 kilometres away from our Hotel Sonnfeld to Höss. You can also reach this comfortably and free of charge with our ski bus.


For beginners there are soft, wide slopes on which they can make their first attempts. Families appreciate the family-friendly slopes on which children can learn to ski playfully.


The more challenging routes of the Höss offer the ultimate challenge for the advanced and adrenaline junkies. Steep slopes, tight curves and technically sophisticated sections also make the Höss an experience for experienced skiers who want to put their skills to the test.


The generously groomed slopes make every skier's heart beat faster, while the view of the surrounding snow-covered mountain landscape ensures unforgettable moments.


The Höss is not only a place for sporting challenges, but also for enjoyable moments. The cosy mountain huts invite you to a well-deserved break after an eventful day on the slopes. Here you can strengthen yourself with regional delicacies and review the impressions of the day.


Overall, the Höss is a multi-faceted ski resort that has something to offer for both beginners and experienced skiers. The variety of slopes, the scenic beauty and the warm atmosphere make the Höss an indispensable destination for all those who want to enjoy the fascination of winter sports to the fullest.


The Wurzeralm

The Wurzeralm, only 30 kilometres from our Hotel Sonnfeld, opens up another dimension of alpine sports enthusiasts. The ski resort is characterized by impressive versatility, which appeals to both beginners and experienced skiers alike. 


For beginners and families, the gentle slopes of the Wurzeralm offer the perfect place to learn the basics of skiing, or to enjoy the slopes in a relaxed atmosphere with your loved ones.


Snowboarders will also get their money's worth on the Wurzeralm. Prepared pistes offer the ideal basis for elegant turns, while freeriders can find their happiness off the beaten track in the deep snow. 


The Wurzeralm thus combines the best elements for skiers and snowboarders. The versatility of the slopes and the challenging descents make it a real magnet for winter sports enthusiasts of all levels.
