For three days, everything on Tyrol&#039;s highest glacier revolves around skiing, testing, and shared experiences in the snow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Test the latest ski models directly on the slopes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Anyone still searching for the perfect skis for the new season will find what they&#039;re looking for at the Testival. Together with Sport F\u00f6rg, leading manufacturers such as Atomic, Blizzard, Fischer, Head, Elan, Nordica, Salomon, V\u00f6lkl, and St\u00f6ckli will present their latest alpine ski models. The special feature: the skis can be tested directly on the glacier slopes. The expert team from Sport F\u00f6rg will be on hand to provide personal advice and help you find the right model for your individual skiing style and requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Apr\u00e8s-ski with panoramic views at 3,440 meters<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even off the slopes, there&#039;s plenty of entertainment. Workshops, culinary offerings, and group events ensure a variety of fun-filled hours in the snow. A special highlight awaits on Saturday, November 7th: Starting at 1 p.m., DJ Spicy will be spinning tunes at Caf\u00e9 3.440. High above the peaks of the Tyrolean mountains, music, good company, and spectacular views come together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ski testing and glacier days at a special price<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For those who want to fully enjoy the testival, attractive ticket packages are available. Three days of glacier skiing, including ski testing, cost \u20ac199, while two days are available for \u20ac159. Both packages can be conveniently booked online. Even a spontaneous visit is worthwhile: Anyone who just wants to try out the latest ski models for a day can purchase a ski test day pass for \u20ac30 directly at the F\u00d6RG Ski Test Base on the glacier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether you&#039;re an ambitious skier, a curious gear tester, or simply an enthusiastic winter sports fan: the Pitztal Testival combines the anticipation of winter with sporting experiences and a convivial atmosphere.
