Winter vacation
in Austria

A winter and ski vacation in Austria is full of options and unforgettable experiences. On the one hand, this includes skiing in Schladming-Dachstein, Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis or Hinterstoder. On these and other perfectly groomed slopes, you can enjoy long turns in the snow during the day until the ski day comes to an end with cheerful après-ski in rustic huts serving traditional Austrian cuisine such as Kaiserschmarrn. However, a winter vacation in Austria does not necessarily have to be spent skiing. More moderate sports such as cross-country skiing, snowshoeing and winter hiking offer both exercise and relaxation in unspoiled natural surroundings.

Those who spend their winter vacation in Austria with their family will find all kinds of winter fun for young and old. The 14-kilometer longest illuminated natural toboggan run in the world, located in the Wildkogel Arena Neukirchen & Bramberg, promises high-speed fun on two runners with a view of the majestic mountains of the Hohe Tauern National Park. Ice skating is also becoming increasingly popular for winter vacations with children. Take to the frozen lakes, such as the Weißensee in Carinthia or the Zeller See in the Salzburg region, and watch your children's eyes light up with every step they take, accompanied by the gentle crunching of their skates – winter vacations in Austria can be so beautiful!
