What makes this resort different

Sunny cruising domain

Mountain character

Obertilliach Golzentipp is best understood as a sunny cruising domain: sun-exposed terrain and a predominantly non-black piste mix favour relaxed, daylight-oriented cruising.

75% south/west-facing

92% non-black pistes

The trade-off

Relaxed cruising and daylight-oriented trips on predominantly non-black terrain.

Sun-exposed terrain can become more weather-sensitive during warm or marginal snow periods.
