Sölden Piste Map
Sölden’s terrain is vast, varied, and split across three main mountains: Giggijoch, Gaislachkogl, and the glacier areas of Rettenbach and Tiefenbach. The Giggijoch area is known for its wide, open pistes ideal for beginners and intermediates, providing a relaxed introduction to the slopes. The Giggijoch gondola, one of the fastest in the world, whisks skiers directly to the heart of the area, where well-groomed blue and red pistes are perfect for building confidence.
Moving across to Gaislachkogl, more advanced skiers will find steeper pistes and challenging descents, including the resort’s longest piste, which stretches for an impressive 15 km back to the village. The upper reaches of Gaislachkogl also offer direct access to the resort’s two terrain parks, designed for freestyle enthusiasts of all abilities. With meticulously maintained jumps, rails, and features, these parks add an extra dimension to Sölden’s appeal.
The highlight for many visitors is the glacier skiing available at Rettenbach and Tiefenbach, both reachable by the Glacier Road or via lift connections. These high-altitude slopes offer exceptional snow quality, wide open pistes, and dramatic alpine scenery. The glaciers also play host to the annual FIS Alpine Ski World Cup opener, showcasing their world-class credentials.
For those seeking advanced and expert terrain, Sölden delivers with a selection of demanding black pistes, steep couloirs, and off-piste opportunities for those accompanied by local guides. The resort’s vertical drop of 1,990 m allows for lengthy, uninterrupted descents that are sure to satisfy even the most experienced skiers.
The landscape at Sölden is characterised by its grand glaciers, broad ridges, and panoramic viewpoints such as the Ice Q platform atop Gaislachkogl. This combination of varied pistes, modern lift infrastructure, and breathtaking scenery makes Sölden an all-encompassing destination for skiers of every ability.
