Steinplatte Waidring
About the area
Steinplatte Waidring is a gentle, mid-sized Tyrolean area: 37 km of pistes, of which 20 km are green or blue — about 55% of the network. That, plus a magic carpet and five short easy runs right by a lift base, makes it a sound choice for first-timers and for families with small children. Only 6% of the terrain is black or expert-level (2 km), and the longest vertical on a single run is 391 m, so strong skiers will run out of challenge quickly.
The 16 lifts include 10 chairlifts and 2 gondolas, useful when loading children who can't manage a chair. Skiing runs between 767 m and 1853 m, and the longest descent measures 1941 m. Cross-country skiers have a large network nearby: 140 km of trails. Red runs total 13 km for intermediates finding their feet.
