Walmendingerhorn - Heuberg Ski Resort Austria
A decidedly strange ski resort in the Kleinwalsertal, Walmendingerhorn-Heuberg has a meandering, mediocre low elevation sector which vaguely connects to the more inspiring higher altitude zone where a good powder hound will find some joy on the right day. When all the lifts are running, the upper mountain terrain on Walmendingerhorn has some of the best fall line ski terrain in the region. Connected by a long 60-year-old cable car from Mittelberg village, the Walmendingerhorn terrain may be short in vertical but is seriously good fun on a powder day. On the descent from the summit, a stop in the excellent Max' Hütte is mandatory!
For better or worse, the 40 person Walmendingerhorn cable car is being replaced for season 26/27 by a larger, modern 80-person cable car. Whilst the morning lines in the valley will be shorter & quicker, the fresh lines on a powder day will be proportionately disappearing faster too! Price of progress we suppose!
The ski area connects to nearby Ifen via the free Pendelbus. Bus connections between the Kleinwalsertal villages and the major town of Riezlern (at the base of Kanzelwand ski area) are free too, however the bus crossing the border into Germany to fabulous Oberstdorf will cost you!
