Solden / Ski area
Two gondolas at opposite ends of town provide access to the ski
area, all of which is on the west side of the valley, and nearly all
above tree line. A free shuttle bus runs between the two gondolas (and
to the neighbouring villages of Vent and Langenfeld) though rush hour
queues mean using whichever lift is closest to your hotel is definitely
a plan.
The Gaislachkoglbahn, with a handy Intersport rental shop at the base, connects at the middle station to a peak of 3,058 metres. You can connect from this side to the glacier areas by the Landegg chairlift, which traverses the narrow Rettenbach Valley.
Hochsolden and Giggijoch
At the north end of town, a chairlift ascends to the hamlet of Hochsolden and more usefully, the adjacent gondola serves the Giggijoch. Up here, the BASE Youth World lays on a boarder bonanza with a park, easycross, and a race course. A further eight high-speed chairlifts service the mostly red and blue runs, and clutch of blacks, as well as connecting to the Gletscherexpress and the Rettenbach Glacier.
Beginners can take the dedicated single chair located between the two main gondolas. This ascends to a T-bar serviced blue slope, with a bar and restaurant at its base.
