Trail Map Imst

The Ski Resort

The Hoch-Imst ski area lies in the heart of Tyrol and is suitable for families. It boasts numerous offers for children such as free ski courses. Right next to the valley station you can find the perfect practice slope for beginners, which is also used by the ski schools, but there is also room for tobogganing, or simply sunbathing. Professionals will find the right slope in Hoch-Imst, too: The black downhill slope Pratz Bäum is a challenge even for very good winter sports enthusiasts.

Four lifts take skiers and snowboarders up the mountain in the Imst ski area. Two 10-person gondola lifts lead to the Untermarkter Alm and the Alpjoch. There is also the drag lift at Malchbach and a practice lift in the kids area. 

Every Wednesday and Saturday you can not only ski down the slopes during the day, but also in the evening at floodlight. The lift to the Untermarkter Alm is open from 18.30 to 21.30. The illuminated descent is one of the longest in Tyrol.

The Funpark at the Malchbachlift has become a popular meeting place for young people. There's a public, beginner and pro line to make freestylers' hearts beat faster. 15 obstacles are waiting for the daring to plunge down the mountain with snowboards or skis.

On Mountain Dining

Untermarkter Alm

Directly located at the middle station of the ski area Hoch-Imst, the Untermarkter Alm has long been a meeting point for all skiers, tobogganers, winter hikers and gourmet friends. A large sun terrace and down-to-earth hut food invite you to linger at 1,500 metres above sea level. Every Wednesday is noodle evening, on certain Fridays there are game specialities with jazz in the evening. On Saturday evenings we serve ripples and knuckle of pork.

Latschenhütte

Cozy and convivial - the Latschenhütte in the Hoch-Imst ski area is regarded as the original traditional Tyrolean inn. Waltraud and her team spoil you with traditional regional dishes and many a speciality on the sunny terrace and in the cosy rooms. Celebration is also a tradition here: in addition to the weekly toboggan evenings with musical accompaniment (Wednesday and Saturday), the Latschenhütte is also in great demand for private celebrations.

Nightskiing

The Imst ski area is well known for its night offer: Every Wednesday and Saturday evening the chairlift to the Untermarkter Alm is open for skiers and tobogganists.

Away from the slopes, Hoch-Imst also has a lot to offer. Among other things, there is the longest Alpine coaster in the world, where you can have fun all year round. The Alpine Coaster in Imst is 3.5 kilometres long and starts at 1550 metres above sea level. You are on your way to the valley in about 12 minutes

There are two natural toboggan runs as well, on which you can sled down towards valley. Starting points are at the Latschenhütte (6 km long) and the Untermarkter Alm (4 km long). The latter is illuminated on Wednesdays and Saturdays until 2 am. You can also toboggan in the moonlight on the other one, but you have to take a headlamp with you

With Touring skis or snowshoes you can also climb at night. Every Wednesday evening in the winter season a guided tour with torches is offered. Friday evening the illuminated piste will be available exclusively for ski tourers. 

Also Winter hikes, ice skating and cross-country skiing are offered in Imst and complete the versatile range for the whole family.
