Fieberbrunn tourism and investment on the rise

Encouraging news from the Fieberbrunn tourism office regarding visitor numbers this summer: up 7.3% so far this year thus outperforming the average rise of 5% across the whole Tirol region.  Good to remember that the winter season here posted an 8% increase in visitors too.

The summer season in Fieberbrunn is already well developed with 47% of all annual visits taking place outside the winter season and the tourist office has great plans to develop this business further in conjunction with Kitzbühel and Saalbach.

It’s thanks to these dual season visitor numbers that the All-Suite Resort Fieberbrunn will be able to deliver 180 days occupancy per annum which is 15% higher than the officially published average for Tirol being 156 days.

The Fieberbrunn lifts run right up 28 October with a break in November giving the lift company one month to prepare the winter opening on 1 December, a week earlier than previous seasons thanks to a 7 million Euro investment this summer to the snowmaking on the Streuböden ski area.  The Streuböden lake has been extended to capture more melt water and new high-capacity pumps and additional snow cannons will be able to recycle the water and cover the entire ski area in just 7 days in preparation for the opening of the winter season and busy Christmas and New Year holidays!

More welcome news is the forthcoming 15 million Euro investment in the Buchensteinwand ski area, famous for its iconic Jakobskreuz.  The Buchensteinwand ski area can be accessed from Hochfilzen and currently has 8 lifts, 22 km of runs and one of the biggest children’s ski areas in Tirol, the Bobo-Kinderpark.  The renowned Pletzer group will be developing the snowmaking systems and lifts and creating extra facilities to cater for winter and summer visitors.

Austria’s biggest skiable area: very soon, Fieberbrunn will also connect with Zell am See via Saalbach Hinterglemm and Viehofen creating 347km of interlinked skiing and overtaking the Arlberg as Austria’s biggest ski area.  The concrete foundations for the lift have already been laid and it’s anticipated the connecting lift will be installed in the coming year.
