So what's it like?
Snow-sure skiing from this pretty, traditional ski village
Axamer Lizum has hosted the Winter Olympic Games twice and proven itself as a snow sure domain, it offers magnificent views of Innsbruck and the surrounding region. The hotels and 'après ski' offered are in the attractive Tirolean village of Götzens from where a new 8-seater gondola (built in 2006/7) connects you straight through to the Muttereralm ski area. Alternatively take the free ski bus (20-25 minutes) to Axamer Lizum.
Ski information
Beginners
The 'Magic Mountains' ski instructors will patiently ensure that you make the most of your first ski holiday! The nursery area around the base of the main ski area has plenty of gentle runs on which to gain confidence, with the inspiration of the stunning mountain scenery all around.
Intermediates
With a multitude of long red runs and a good snow record, Axamer Lizum ski area is an undisputed paradise for intermediates. The men's Olympic downhill run from the top of the Hoadl (2,340m) is a challenge not to be missed!
Advanced
This former Olympic resort offers some good challenges. Advanced skiers will relish the steep men's slalom run from the top of the Birgitzkopfl whilst the ski routes from the Hoadl offer a good challenge especially after a fresh snow fall! The wonderful 7km home run also rounds off a day's skiing perfectly!

'Après Ski' centres around the 'Magic Evenings' programme. A range of events and activities mean there's something for everyone.
