The Carinthians are rightly proud of their Goldeck Mountain: loads of sunshine and a stunning view over the Alps are paving the way for a highly elaborate winter sports paradise. Just 5 km away from the highway exit Spittal, skiers and snowboarders have the possibility to work themselves out throughout the whole winter. Whether you test the longest black slope of the Alps, or enjoy powder on the 50 ha Freeride Area – it’s suffice to say that you will most likely find your personal playground here.

However, if slopes are not your kind of thing, you can fill up your bag of tricks at the Snowpark Goldeck celebrating its comeback this year. With snowboardes as well as freeskiers in mind, the shape crew prepared setups suitable for both beginners and advanced riders alike. Whether you are looking to improve or take it to another level, you have everything you need here: different boxes (flat, rainbow, down, Flat/down, wave), rails and kickers.

The park is easy reachable with a 6-seater chairlift that will take you to the top of the 650 meters long snowpark. Three different lines suitable for all riding levels are in place starting with 3 boxes in the beginner area that are good to warm up on. When your muscles are stretched enough, you can take on the medium line. Here fun begins with some neat Down- and Up-Rails, a Flat/Down-Tube or a Lollipop Jib and other features such us three kickers (6-7m table) in a row that will provide you with enough airtime to lock stylish tricks. Last but not least, the kid's area will once again be just the place to be for young freestylers. Whether Wave Run or Banked Run, there will be enough features to run riot.
