Winter information in Ski Hotel Gerlos

Spend your perfect winter holiday at the Sonnenhof, the ultimate ski hotel in the Zillertal! Let the slopes of the Zillertal Arena shine for you: with 52 modern lift systems and 150 km of meticulously groomed pistes, you’ll never have to ride the same lift twice in this largest ski area in the Zillertal. And the best part? You can ski right to the doorstep of your ski hotel, Sonnenhof in Gerlos, throughout the entire winter season!

  • New for Winter 2024/25: Teufeltal 8-Person Chairlift
    The Zillertal Arena is enhancing its infrastructure with the new 8-person chairlift, which replaces the 4-person lift that has been in operation since 1998. This modern lift will connect Zell am Ziller and Gerlos more efficiently and attractively, offering greater capacity, comfort, and shorter wait times for guests. It features weather protection and seat heating, ensuring a pleasant experience.

  • New for Winter 2024/25: Duxer X-Press 6-Person Chairlift                                                                                                            The well-established 4-person Duxeralmbahn, which has served guests for 32 years, will be replaced by the cutting-edge Duxer X-Press 6-person chairlift. This new lift will also include weather protection and seat heating, enhancing comfort and transport speed. Along with this upgrade, a new SPAR market at Duxeralm and a ski depot will provide guests with convenient equipment storage and preparation for their ski day. Additionally, a new conveyor belt at the Duxer lift will further improve comfort for young skiers.
