Fulpmes ski resort - Stubai Valley
Schlick 2000 ski area
With the backdrop of the Kalkkogel mountains along the back, Schlick sits in a bowl. This makes it the perfect resort for almost all weather conditions. When it's windy, you're protected from the heavy winds. And when there's been a fresh dump of snow, you've got a wonderful bowl with some amazing lines to pick from. And if the visibility isn't good, you've also got a few tree-lined runs lower down too.
Schick is a great resort for beginners and intermediates too. At the middle station of the gondola you'll find the beginner areas, with a kids area for the ski school and a beginner area with some drag lifts for adults. The extra flat area for ski beginners at the Froneben middle station and on the Schanzlin practice meadow also offer ideal conditions for the little ones. “Ron’s Kinderland” at the Froneben mid station is the perfect place for little ones to learn on, with the help of magic carpets, a training course and a diddy Snow Park. Beginners can conquer the basics on the “Schanzlin” and “Schlickerboden” nursery slopes before progressing onto the three blue “Panorama” runs, which start from the Kreuzjoch station. End the week with confidence-boosting long descent from the top at Sennjoch, starting off on the blue “Burgstal” run and linking onto the “Panorama”.
Intermediates will love the network of blues and reds from Sennjoch and Sennjochstuberl. Must-ski’s include the red “Galtalm” and the challenging marked route from Kreuzjoch. More advanced skiers can tackle the new “Kanonenrohr” black which links onto the “Zibenschuss”.
