Gerlos lies higher up the Gerlostal valley, between the Zell and Königsleiten sectors. The Dorfbahn and Isskogelbahn take you from the village into the ski area. This location makes Gerlos a starting point for trips in either direction.
Choose your access lift to suit your accommodation and the start of your ski day. The mountain sector has pistes, a snowpark and practice facilities; down in the valley, you can swap downhill skiing for walking or cross-country skiing in and around the side valleys.

The Gerlos sector has a snowpark and a funrun. There is also a SkiMovie course at Ebenfeld. Find them on the piste map to include them in a day within the local sector.
Schönachtal is one of the side valleys near Gerlos with a winter walking route. Krummbachtal and Wimmertal also have separate winter routes, offering a different setting from the high pistes.
Getting there
The local ski bus serves the access lifts. The bus connection between Königsleiten, Gerlos and Zell has limited capacity and does not replace the ski connection. Plan your return over the mountain and use the bus timetable for separate journeys in the valley.
