Description

A brilliant steep freeride couloir with some great rip-able terrain below. From the Hafelekar cable car station, at the top of the Nordkette ski area, hike west along a signposted path for 10 minutes to reach a col overlooking a stone hut.

Put skis on here and zip across the shallow bowl immediately north of the hut to reach the wide col at the top of this line.

Drop into the line, which is 40 degrees and 10 metres wide at the top and gradually opens into a wide, fun slope below.

Rip down this, making sure you always drift right in order to reach the Übungshang piste.

If you ski straight down towards the Seegrubbe lift station (instead of drifting right to the piste) you will end up in the big dip to the north of the Seegrubbe and will have to hike out.

It's only a 3 minute hike but it will reduce your "cool points" with the tourists who watch people ski this line!
