60. Seilrennen
Tradition, die verbindet
Das Hochfügener Seilrennen gehört zum Winter im Zillertal wie die Ski zur Piste – und ist längst fixer Bestandteil jeder Saison. Am 12. April 2026 geht das Rennen bereits in seine 60. Auflage und bringt erneut Teamgeist, Geschick und jede Menge Spaß auf die Piste.
Ab 09:30 Uhr starten auf der Piste Waidoffen 11 das Kinderseilrennen und das Seilrennen für Erwachsene. Drei Skifahrer, verbunden durch ein Seil, meistern gemeinsam die Riesentorlaufstrecke – hier zählen Abstimmung, Rhythmus und vor allem Zusammenhalt.
Ob als Teilnehmer oder Zuschauer entlang der Strecke: Das Seilrennen ist Treffpunkt für Familien, Freunde und Wintersportfans. Gemeinsam lassen wir die Saison am letzten Tag mit guter Stimmung, Musik und echtem Hochfügen-Feeling ausklingen.
So funktioniert das Seilrennen
Beim Seilrennen treten jeweils drei Skifahrer als Seilschaft an. Verbunden durch ein Seil bewältigen sie gemeinsam einen Riesentorlauf. Nicht die Einzelleistung entscheidet, sondern das Zusammenspiel im Team – Tempo, Timing und gegenseitiges Vertrauen machen den Unterschied.
Gerade das macht den besonderen Reiz dieses traditionsreichen Bewerbs aus und sorgt jedes Jahr für spannende Läufe und beste Unterhaltung entlang der Strecke.

Around the
rope race
In addition to the sporting competition, there is a varied program for young and old - with entertainment, music and lots of shared moments away from the race track.
In the afternoon, the traditional winter burning ceremony will also take place - an atmospheric custom with which the winter is bid farewell together in Hochfügen.
For pedestrians, the ascent with the 8-seater jet is free of charge - so the rope race can be experienced live even without skis.
Live on stage
at the rope race
The Jukebox Brothers don't just play their program - they play what the audience wants to hear. Music requests are taken up spontaneously, and hits from the 80s, 90s, 2000s and the current charts ensure the best atmosphere and real sing-along moments.
From 14:00 to 18:00, the musicians accompany the rope race party live and ensure an atmospheric end to the season in Hochfügen.
Fun and games
for little racing fans
While the adults are out on the race track, the youngest visitors can enjoy a supervised children's program with games, creativity, and exercise. With face painting, children can transform themselves into their favorite characters, and in the interactive circus, they can juggle, balance, and try out little circus tricks for themselves.
This makes the rope race a special experience for younger guests too.
Children's program: 11:00 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. & 2:00 p.m. – 3:30 p.m.
