Glacier feeling & spring moments: Your spring in the Stubai Valley
Your holiday in the Stubai Valley
While perfect conditions for skiing await at over 3,000 meters on the Stubai Glacier, the Stubai Valley below is already showing its spring-like side. It's the perfect time of year for anyone wanting to experience both winter and spring in one vacation. We'll show you what's happening in the Stubai Valley in April.
Spring skiing in the Stubai Valley
1 ski pass - 4 ski resorts
Especially in April, the conditions are often perfect:
Sunny days, firm snow and significantly less activity on the slopes.
Stubai Glacier
If you want to go skiing in the spring, the Stubai Glacier is perfect: Enjoy the snow at over 3,000 meters altitude, change from ski pants to shorts in the parking lot – pretty cool, right? 😎
Did you know that children under 10 can ski for free in the Stubai Valley? The only requirement is that they are accompanied by a paying adult.
...
Silt 2000

👇 Or how about a hike? 👇
Psst, you'll find four Intersport stores right on the Stubai Glacier. Here you can rent everything from forgotten ski goggles to fast racing skis!
You'll also find several ski schools directly on the Stubai Glacier: https://www.stubaier-gletscher.com/winter/skischule/. They offer everything from beginner to freeride courses!
