Exklusive Kandahar run

accompanied by former Ski World Cup racers

Be the first to make your turns on the untouched World Cup slope and ride with a former Ski World Cup racer and an operations manager from the Bayerische Zugspitzbahn.

With two variants and a total of 1,800 meters in altitude over a length of 7 km, the sometimes very demanding downhill run (No. 5) offers an unforgettable experience and provides plenty of adrenaline in the morning. Afterwards, you can chat about your riding style over breakfast at Drehmöser 9.
