Sölden is also famous for its wide open and perfectly groomed ski runs where 25 snow-grooming machines are in operation every day. In fact, half of Soelden's 45 miles of red (intermediate) runs are groomed.
The broad rolling glaciers at Solden are an obvious draw for intermediates, and thrill of carving some turns on the same runs that the World Cup pros compete on is a unique treat. Of Solden's more challenging terrain, three miles of ski routes marked on the piste map with dotted lines and diamonds are within reach of keen intermediates. These slightly off-piste routes lead through deep caverns and pass some charming mountain huts. The longest run you're likely to experiences, leads from the Schwarze Schneid panorama point and ends some 6,500 vertical feet in the valley below.
