With a new makeover into the new season

The Snowpark Gastein is known for its dumps, its good location and the nice freeride possibilities. A ride on the groomed terrain of the Gastein mountains will not disappoint any rider. The Stubnermulde presents many different, exciting obstacles. By the way, they'll get a colour makeover this season and shine in deep blue.

Three creative lines

The Stubnermulde playground presents three lines, which can be easily combined. A total of 36 obstacles are distributed in the park, which make every rider's heartbeat faster. The beginner line shines with several small kickers, on which many riders have already made history with their first jumps. The medium section inspires with countless tubes, cool jump features and screams for progression. The advanced section will give every jibber a smile over his whole face! The Burgstall T-bar lift ensures fast transportation after the run so that the shred fun can continue.

Here we would like to show you a Vimeo video.
