Brixen im Thale

As the oldest village in the valley, Brixen gave Brixental Valley its name and is located on the sunny side of the valley. The valley station of the two gondolas is just a few hundred metres from the village centre and runs on both sides of the valley all year round. This allows direct access to the ski area in winter.

There is also a free car park at the valley station, that provides a perfect gateway to the SkiWelt Wilder Kaiser - The resort has a fairly long season that runs from November to April. On the mountain you will find many numerous small, traditional huts many family-run and full of original Austrian hut culture.

The Hochbrixen gondola lift takes skiers, winter hikers and cross-country skiers directly to the practice area and the start of the high-altitude cross-country ski trail. The Zinsberg cable car takes you to the mountain station with its impressive viewing platform, which is also open in winter. For enjoyment away from the piste, a 5.2 km winter hiking trail from Hochbrixen into the valley offers a unique nature experience.
