FOREST DIRECTION
LONGEST DESCENT (BLUE = EASY)
At 1,200 meters, the Waldabfahrt is the longest run in the Kappe ski resort. This easy run is also suitable for families. The Waldabfahrt was designed to be extra wide, offering beginners plenty of space to improve their skiing technique.


PANORAMIC ANNEX
MAGNIFICENT VIEW (RED = MEDIUM DIFFICULTY)
This varied run is pure fun for skiers. The 800-meter descent offers a magnificent view of the snow-covered mountains in the Kappe ski area.
SLALOMHANG
CHALLENGING DOWNHILL (BLACK = DIFFICULT)
The 600-meter-long slalom run is the most demanding run in the ski resort and poses a challenge even for experienced recreational skiers and professionals, as it is the steepest run north of the Alps.


A modern 6-person chairlift transports visitors from the Waldabfahrt, the Panoramahang, and the Slalomhang back to the top. The 4-person "Panoramabahn" chairlift is located on the easy-to-ski Käppchenhang and connects the Kappe ski area to the Bremberg ski area.
