Solden / Advanced
© copyright TVB/BBS Sölden
Only a fraction of Solden’s pistes are black, but these are
nicely distributed over most areas apart from the glaciers. There are
challenging bump runs off Hainbachjoch and below Rotkuglhutte on Piste
17. The most accessible off piste skiing is found in Wasserkar beneath
Gaislachkogl down to the midstation. More black pistes intercept these
descents towards the bottom. There is extensive ski touring beyond the
lift-serviced area.
The Big 3 Rally
The area’s signature ski journey is called the Big 3 Rally, a 50 kilometre journey that encompasses an elevation gain of around 10,000 metres – and splendid 360 degree views much of the way. The four-hour route begins with more lifting than skiing, on the Giggijoch gondola and through the so-called Golden Gate to the glaciers. Whiz through the 170 metre ski tunnel that connects the two glaciers (quite cool, that) and it’s hell for leather on the super smooth and wide Tiefenbach and Rettenbach glaciers. If you’re on your carvers, here’s dinner. Once you’re done nursing your Hermann Maier fantasies, take a bow and head down the winding ski route through Rettenbach Valley. One more gondola ride, up the Gaislachkogl to 3,058 metres, and you’ll arrive at the final Big 3 panorama platform.
