Resort Overview
Speikboden offers a compact but varied ski area with 35 kilometres of meticulously groomed pistes in South Tyrol's Ahrntal Valley, with elevations from 950 to 2,400 metres against the spectacular backdrop of the Zillertal Alps. The resort combines flowing intermediate cruisers with challenging expert runs, including the demanding Sonnklar black piste featuring sustained 65% gradients. Modern snowmaking systems cover 90% of all marked runs, ensuring reliable conditions throughout winter. Wide, open slopes above the tree line contrast with beautiful forest descents, creating diverse skiing experiences at different elevations. Spectacular views extend across the Eastern Alps to Austria, creating an extraordinary panoramic backdrop particularly from the Sonnklar summit at 2,400 metres.
