Sportgastein – Ski Route 1 - Golden Powder
- Length: approx. 5 km

The Golden Powder route is the longest in the ski area, with the ideal access point just below the mountain terminal of the Goldbergbahn lift. The end of this run feeds straight into the next route (the Golden Rush), allowing you to freeride all the way down to the valley.
Sportgastein – Ski Route 2 - Golden Rush
- Length: approx. 2 km
- Starting point: crossing S3 / S6
The Golden Rush route begins right at the end of the Golden Powder run. The mid section, especially, is rather steep, ideal for experienced freeriders. At the end of the route, you’ll find yourself right outside the valley terminal of the Goldbergbahn lift.
Sportgastein – Ski Route 3 - Golden Ride
- Length: approx. 2 km
- Starting point: Valley station Kreuzkogellift
The Golden Ride route is new, created just this year. Your starting point is directly next to the valley terminal of the Kreuzkogel tow. This is the shortest route, making it ideally suited as a warm-up and sure to whet your appetite for more.
