Test Drive Your Own Piste Basher
Test Drive Your Own Piste Basher

Austria's Hintertux glacier ski area are again giving anyone who wants to give it a try, the chance to drive a snow grooming tractor or piste basher.
The glacier ski centre in the Austrian Tirol, which is one of only two still open for skiing and snowboarding year round, has its own dedicated PistenBully Test Area where the 600 horsepower machines can be tried out.
The activity is offered free of charge, with no reservation required, but you do need to have a driving licence and a pair of sensible shoes or boots for driving ("no ski boots allowed"). You also need a lift pass to get up to the test centre.
Anyone wanting to test drive a PistenBully can do so on the 11th, 18th and 25th April or the 2nd May 2024 when the test area is operational between 11am and 1pm.
