This winter season, the Gitschberg Jochtal ski resort has many new opportunities in store for you. The new Gimmy Snowpark Jochtal playground in Vals is built on a large snow hill where children can enjoy slides, crawl through tunnels and explore a variety of play areas. Located directly at the valley station, it is the perfect place for a romp in the snow.

Another new highlight is located at the mountain station of the Nesselbahn lift: the Gimmy Snowpark Gitschberg playground features slides, crawl tunnels and climbing elements for playing and hiding, all arranged on a large snow hill right next to the lift.

For fun of the sporty variety, the new Kidscross course next to the Breiteben slope offers waves, hills and bends to help you improve your technique in a playful way. The popular Kidscross course in the Jochtal area also remains available this season.

Hit the new Wastl Huber Speed Check run to measure your speed and have your descent captured on camera – you can download your picture as a keepsake.

On the Skimovie slalom piste, you can have your descent fully recorded from start to finish. Every moment, from the countdown to the final turn, is captured on video for you to download and share.

Look forward to a winter full of play, fun and exciting experiences to share with the whole family.
