Our accommodation is based in the magnificent Hochkönig mountain region; this area is home to some of the best skiing in the whole of Austria with an impeccable snow record! Skiing is usually from early December to mid April and caters for all types of skiers from beginners, intermediates, experts and cross country. There are four ski schools to choose from and lot’s of easy beginners slopes within easy access.

The Hochkönig skiing area is huge and rivals many of the better known resorts in size, with 150km of skiing, there is enough to keep even the keenest skier happy for a week.  <View Skimap  >

New for 2008/9 is a new eight person gondola between Mühlbach and Dienten. This is ideal for beginners wanting to get some miles in, it serves some very nice blues.

Crèche Facilities:

There are a number of crèches in the area allowing you to care for young children with confidence. One of the Crèches is halfway up the mountain at Hintermoos enabling you to pop in to check up through out the day.
