Austria's Skiwelt (skiwelt.at) has announced a €9.3m s[pend on upgrades for the coming winter.

The country's largest fully lift-linked area with 280km of piste is spending on upgrading lifts, new terrain parks, a floodlit toboggan run and better grooming and snow making.

Three new 'Fun Slopes' are being created at Hochsöll for freeriders on boards or skis. These have a combined surface area of over five hectares and 40 kickers and rails of all degrees of difficulty from beginner to expert. Beginners will have their own Funslope at the Salvenmoospiste, and there will be a beginners and medium level run at the Rinnerabfahrt.

For evening fun the 4.5km-long Astberg toboggan run in Ellmau/Going will get its own snow-making system and flood lighting.

Another improvement will be the Stöckl chairlift in Söll which is being completely renovated with new child safety features added.
