Ski and snow trails

Ski Amade's five main regions are the Salzburger Sportwelt, Dachstein Tauern, Gastein, the High King Mountain Ski Area and the Großarl Valley. The valley's many attractions include the Skikeriki, a giant snow igloo and the Ruhe-Platzln Snow Park and children's area. The Dachstein Glacier, located above the town of Ramsau am Dachstein, provides 360 degree views from an observation platform. There are many clearly laid out ski runs, freestyle and snowboarding parks throughout the region and equipment is easy to rent. The Salzburger Sportwelt has invested heavily in snow making equipment which guarantees that guests in nearby holiday houses and holiday rentals will get the most out of a skiing holiday in the area.

Mountain traditions

A number of scenes from The Sound of Music were filmed around the Salzburger Sportwelt region of Ski Amade and while winter sports are undoubtedly the region's biggest draw, there are plenty of other things to do. For a day of rejuvenation in thermal spring waters, head to the spa town of Bad Gastein situated at the northern rim of the Hohe Tauern National Park. The historic multi-story hotel buildings on the slopes are as fascinating as the region's pagan customs which have been assimilated into the Catholic tradition. The High King Mountain Ski Area, once the playground of the rich and famous, is just an hour's drive from the Austrian city of Salzburg. Book a holiday house in Ski Amadé today and enjoy some of Europe's finest winter sports.
