OUR WINTER.

Snow changes everything. Especially you.

There’s something about winter in Austria. The silence after fresh snow. Village lights coming on at four o’clock, church bells, wooden balconies, the smell of woodsmoke and mulled wine. Everything feels closer: the mountains, the people, the evenings. For a few days, everyone lives in the same little snowy bubble, and nobody wants to leave it.

Whether you come to ski from first lift to last, to never touch a pair of skis, or simply to switch off your head for a week, you’re in good hands. We live here. And our focus is you.

Your winter week

You don’t come for the snow. You come for how it makes you feel.

Thank you for thinking of our corner of the Alps. We’d love to show you the winter we know, the one behind the postcards.

MorningFirst tracksAn empty slope, perfect snow and a valley still waking up below you.
AfternoonSlow and sunnyA hut terrace, a deckchair, a Kaiserschmarrn. Or a sleigh ride through the snow.
EveningCandlelightA wooden stube, a table we chose for you, and stories from the day.

Skier or not, two of you or twelve, a week full of action or a week of doing nothing at all. Tell us who’s coming and what you love. We’ll build the winter around you.

No packages. No templates. Just a conversation.

Our summer, your way

Six places we’d take our own family, and the little things only locals know about them.

Glacier viewing platform on the Kitzsteinhorn above KaprunKitzsteinhorn glacier

Snowballs at breakfast, swimming by lunch.

Up to 3,000 metres, snow under your feet in July, then back down to the lake for the afternoon. The kind of day you’ll be telling people about for years.

Local secretGo up the glacier first thing. Clouds like to build after noon, and the morning view from the Top of Salzburg platform is the one you want.
Plan my glacier day
The Grossglockner High Alpine Road winding through the Austrian AlpsGrossglockner

36 bends, one glacier and a marmot who wants your carrot.

Built by hand in the 1930s, through the toughest years Austria knew. Opened in 1935, and still the most beautiful drive in the Alps.

Local secretPack a carrot. The marmots at Kaiser-Franz-Josefs-Höhe know the drill. Then take the cobbled side road up to the Edelweißspitze for the best view on the whole road.
Plan my drive
The Krimml Waterfalls in the Hohe Tauern National ParkKrimml Waterfalls

You’ll hear it before you see it.

380 metres of water in three drops, the highest falls in Austria. The trail climbs right beside the falls, close enough to feel the spray on your face.

Local secretWalk it if you can, at least to the first viewpoints. That’s where you really feel it. Not up for the climb? The lower falls are close to the bottom, and the water world museum there shows you everything without the uphill.
Take me there
Hallstatt Skywalk viewing platform above the lakeHallstatt

So pretty, China built a copy.

True story. But nothing beats the original: 7,000 years of salt, a lake like a mirror and the Skywalk hanging above it all.

Local secretBe there before 9 or after 5, when the day buses have gone. Come by train and take the little ferry across the lake. That’s how Hallstatt should first appear.
See the original
Mirabell Gardens with the Hohensalzburg Fortress in SalzburgSalzburg

Mozart, gardens and a hundred terraces.

Baroque squares, Mirabell’s flowers, the fortress on the hill and more cafés than you have days. Sachertorte by the river, Salzburger Nockerl for two. Tradition you can taste.

Local secretSkip the tourist beer halls. Go to Augustiner Bräu in Mülln: monks’ beer poured from wooden barrels into stone mugs, under old chestnut trees. Pure Salzburg.
Add Salzburg to my trip
Dinner by the lake in Zell am See at sunsetFood & stay

Dinner by the lake. Then dessert. Obviously.

Kasnocken in a cast-iron pan, fresh lake fish, a glass of Austrian white as the sun goes down. Hosts who remember your name. This is how we live.

Local secretAsk about the guest summer card when you book. Many hotels here include it: cable cars, lake boats and pools, all covered. We know which ones.
