On The Slopes
Most of the runs in the Salzburger Sportwelt are blue and red offering the best opportunities to improve your skiing skills.
Groups staying in Radstadt will begin at the nursery slopes of the Radstadt / Altenmarkt or Zauchensee area, those staying in St. Johann best start off at Alpendorf. From there, beginners will soon progress to the easy blue runs. Wagrain beginners start off on the local nursery slopes then head for the "Flying Mozart" gondola for high speed access to the upper slopes.
Intermediate skiers can easily explore the entire area as no matter where you go, there will always be a wide selection of red runs.
For the advanced, the Zauchensee and Alpendorf areas have some testing black runs. Off-piste untracked snow can be found many days after a snowfall.
Snowboarders will find ample challenges in the fun parks with half-pipes at Alpendorf, Flachau and Kleinarl.
Off The Slopes
There is a wide range of après-ski on offer in all our resorts. Possibilities for evening entertainment include flood lit skiing in Flachau, bowling, indoor swimming at the Wagrain Waterworld and ice skating. There are also many shops, cafés and bars.
