This is on a hill and can be accessed by a cable in Innsbruck, Austria and the most popular annual ski jumping competition is conducted here and this well built ski jumping track is even visible from the highway nearby. Jumpers doing ski jumping is quiet a sight, the rythum and the speed of their movement along the track is a joy.

The Patscherkofel has always played a big part in sports history: Olympic Winter Games in 1964 and 1976 with the legendary race of Franz Klammer, in the season 1998/99 the greatest team success in the history of the world cup with 9 racers of the ÖSV Super G team in the lead. The winner was Hermann Maier. In 2003 Michaela Dorfmeister won the wom-en’s downhill race, the two Super G races were won by Renate Götschl and Brigitte Obermoser.Ski along the tracks of the stars via the Olympic Run and enjoy the wide Family Run. The Patscherkofel offers slopes for all levels of ability and also an out-standing view over Innsbruck, the Stubai Valley, the Wipp Valley and Inn valley. The numerous moun-tains higher than 3.000 m will make a lasting im-pression on you
Well worth a trip for the walk along to the other station - a couple of hours or more. There are restaurants along the way and you can walk to the summit of the Patscherkofel. If you rely on the bus to bring you back, allow time for the chair lift at the end of the walk. The ride is spectacular but rather slow: we missed the connection by two minutes and had to wait another hour.

I had never skied before and my instructor helped me each but of the way. I started off on the children slope and with teaching, I completed my first black slope independently. I will never forget how much I smiled that day!

The guys at the rental shop (who even ordered us a cab when we missed the last bus), Caroline whom we booked our last minute ski lessons and our instructors Tom and Lisa were incredible. Really friendly, relaxed and organised. A really great vibe.
