Skiing & sun terrace
Your ski vacation at the Schwarzhorn alpine hotel, directly on the slopes, with plenty of skiing fun right at your front door!
Another big plus of spending your winter vacation here and the reason many of guests come back time and time again is the compact and family-friendly size of the Jochgrimm ski resort. With four ski lifts (two tow lifts, two chairlifts) and seven kilometers of slopes, we are among the smaller, family-friendly ski areas. The compact format of this ski area gives you and your children greater safety, and makes the Jochgrimm a family ski resort par excellence. Here, you don’t have to worry about losing track of your children. On the contrary: While relaxing on our sun terrace with a cocktail in your hand and admiring the spectacular sunset, you can keep a constant eye on your children having fun on our beginners’ slope, with its conveyor belt and playground.
The Jochgrimm ski area has slopes with every level of difficulty – from flat pistes for beginners, medium-steep slopes, and the really challenging slopes for practiced skiers: the perfect instructional program for beginners. Yet the most-experts won’t feel left out either!
