For those who love to ski against the tide: slope 3 “Stöckabfahrt”

In the afternoon, when the majority of skiers and snowboarders swish down the mountains into the valley, the slopes can get a little crowded here and there.

You can best access this lonesome valley via the Gratbahn (B8) lift or the Velillbahn (B1) lift.
