In the sixties the inhabitants started building the first lift facilities, which introduced tourism in Obereggen, located at 1,550 m asl. The ski centre Latemar-Obereggen grew out of this first lift facility, today this popular ski resort offers 48 km of ski slopes and 18 state-of-the art lift facilities. Snowboard freaks can look forward to a half-pipe and a fun park. To those who love fairy-tale snow-covered landscapes we recommend the Ganischgeralm or Zischgalm pastures.

The little mountain village at the foot of the Latermar is not only admirable in winter, but also in the warmer months of the year. Its natural landscape longs for being experienced at close quarters. As the lift facilities are also open in summer, you are spoilt for choice.

Our tip: an exciting day in the high-rope course of Obereggen. This facility has got 30 stations and four courses and is a great place for a family getaway. Check out your balance among the tree tops.
