SkiWelt Wilder Kaiser–Brixental & Hohe Salve
SkiWelt / Hohe Salve
One of Austria's largest interconnected ski areas, with 360-degree views from the summit of the Hohe Salve over more than 70 peaks above 3,000 meters.
SkiWelt spans the southern foot of the Wilder Kaiser and the Brixen Valley, including the villages of Ellmau, Scheffau, Söll, and Westendorf. Its slopes total about 270 km. It is known for wide, gentle intermediate runs and extensive snowmaking, and it is one of Austria's largest connected ski areas. Through the Brixen Valley it links up with the Kitzbühel ski area. The highest point in the area, the Hohe Salve at about 1,829 meters, has a small chapel and a revolving restaurant at the summit. On clear days you can see many high peaks, including the Großglockner. It is about 20 to 30 km from Kitzbühel and can be reached by ski bus.
