Skiing in Galtür

Galtür is at an altitude of 1,584 metres, making it one of the highest ski villages in Austria and the highest in the Silvretta region. Due to its altitude, Galtür is very snow-sure. This small, picturesque village was built in a traditional Tyrolean style, and it is more than 600 years old. Despite its age, Galtür has plenty of modern and conveniently located accommodation to offer. It also has many child-friendly facilities and is therefore very popular with families. At Siggi's Bambini-Land, kids can take ski school lessons from 3 years old and practice to their heart's content in the practice area that’s exclusively for children.

Things to do in Galtür

Galtür is a winter paradise for all ages. And not just for skiers! You can also go snowboarding, ice skating, and snowshoeing. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can even try paragliding and see the village from the air! Freestylers can hone their skills at the Zeinispark, which features several fun obstacles such as rails, boxes, and moguls. On Wednesdays, you can seize the opportunity to ski under the stars down an illuminated slope. If you’d rather party until the sun comes up, Galtür has plenty of lively après-ski bars and clubs to choose from.

Silvapark Galtür ski area

Galtür has great ski conditions due to its fantastic location and altitude. The ski area in Galtür is called Silvapark: a compact but varied area that features many facilities and a fantastic ski school. That makes the area particularly suitable for families travelling with children.

Despite the small-scale of the area, there are plenty of slopes and trails for (cross-country) skiers to explore. The number of red and black slopes on the piste map may be intimidating for beginners at first, but there are also a number of easier slopes to enjoy. Using the Silvapark Galtür ski pass included when you book your ski holiday with Sunweb, you can explore the whole area with ease.

Silvapark is divided into six sectors, each aimed at a different target group. Zwergerlwelt is for small children, Abenteuerland is for older children, Action Park features the Zeinispark snowpark for freestylers, Heldenbereich has several freeride slopes, Pistenparadies is for skiers, and High & Nordic is for snowshoers and cross-country skiers. You can also go on a fun ski safari all the way to Partenen in the Montafon Valley.
