Skiing Info
To get to the nursery slopes in St Gallenkirch you first have to take either the Garfescha I lift or the Valisera I lift which run from opposite ends of the village. Once at the top of either of these lifts you will have access to some short easy blue runs serviced by button lifts.
There is loads of intermediates skiing in St Gallenkirch and the surrounding resorts. There are easy routes over to Gashurn and any timid intermediate can make the whole journey on just blue runs but you can mix things up with a couple of red runs on the way if you wish to do so. The Gasjoch Bahn lift that connects the Nova mountain to the Hochjoch leaves from the bottom end of town next to the Valisera I and opens up even more skiing.
The Silvretta Montafonm, in which St Gallenkirch is located offer a class of piste called Black Scorpion runs. They have a gradient of up to 80% which will be a challenge for even the most advanced skiers amongst us. The 158km of local piste should keep most skiers happy for a few days if not longer provided that you do not mind doing the same runs a few times but if you want to venture further a field then the full area pass covers 11 resorts in total and just requires a bus ride either up or down the valley.
If you are the type of snowboarder who enjoys a nice day shreading up piste then St Gallenkirch as a lot to offer. However, there is no doubt that the main draw of St Gallenkirch for most snowboarders will the the access to the Nova Snowpark which is renowned as being on of the best snowparks in Austria!
