Hinterglemm circuit
Long panoramic runs wow skiers who look to be enchanted by this diverse and magnificent region.

Tyrol circuit
With almost three-quarters on red slopes, this tour promises challenging ski action! The Tyrol circuit, as the name suggests, tackles the Tyrolean mountains of Skicircus.

The Challenge
The longest ski circuit in the Alps follows the motto, ‘ski your limit’ with good reason. Actually, the slopes themselves are not all that difficult – about two-thirds blue, only 5% black (difficult). However, with a total of 65 slope kilometres, and 12,400 altitudes metres, you have to be really quite athletic to make it through the ultimate ski circuit in the Skicircus by the time the cable cars cease operations for the day. Even professionals will need approximately seven hours, but as a result, you get to see almost the entire Skicircus in just one day! You can start at any of the 32 cable cars.
- Duration (without breaks): approx. 7 hours
- Distance: approx. 65 km
- Altitude: approx. 12,400 m
- Lifts: 32
- Difficulty: medium to difficult
