Alpine skiing and Snowboarding

The sunny slopes of Ramsau are especially suited for families with children. The local ski schools help with the necessary skills and offer pick-up and take home service for children.

The Dachstein glacier is an all year skiing area and offers a fantastic and breath taking view of the surrounding mountains. The "Grand Austrian Ski Tour" across the glacier to Obertraun and Hallstatt is an absolute skiing highlight in spring.

Cross-country skiing

Put your skis on in front of our house and after only 300m you have access to a system of 200 km of perfectly groomed classic and skating tracks for cross-country skiing.

In 1999 Ramsau am Dachstein hosted the Nordic World Championships and since then has been a number one venue for Nordic athletes from all over the world.

Ramsau am Dachstein is well established as Austria’s best cross-country skiing region.

Skitours

The 25 km long "Grand Austrian Ski Tour" across the glacier to Obertraun and Hallstatt is an absolute skiing highlight in spring. There is a choice of 16 ski tour trails and steep downhills for those who seek the challenge away from the crowds.

Apart from the Dachstein area there are numerous possibilities for ski tours in the Tauern mountains.

Winter hiking

A well groomed winter hiking and horse sleigh trail goes past our house and invites you to enjoy nature in a very relaxing way. You can also make your own tracks in the snow by trying "snow shoe hiking".
