The slope
on your doorstep
First the slopes, then the sauna
The ski slope runs right past the village, and the nearest chairlift is only a few hundred metres away. No driving, no hunting for a parking space: you clip into your skis in front of the hut. With children and lots of gear, that's worth its weight in gold.
The Katschberg-Aineck ski area reaches up to 2,220 metres, with 80 km of pistes and 17 lifts. All slopes have snowmaking, and the longest run is 5.6 kilometres. On Thursdays there's floodlit night skiing at the Königswiese.
And afterwards? Ski boots into the dryer, sauna on, stove lit. Your group has up to 140 m² to itself, with kitchen, terrace and, in the Almchalet or Panorama, the hot tub on the terrace. And in the morning the bread roll service brings breakfast to your door.
Reviews
Das war die beste Unterkunft, die ich in einem Ski-Urlaub jemals hatte. Wir (7 Personen) haben noch während unseres Aufenthaltes dort für die nächste Saison gebucht. Das sagt doch alles, oder?
Mr S.
Wir hatten wunderschöne sonnige Tage in einem herrlichen Skigebiet. Die Piste/der Lift ist nur ein paar Meter vom Haus entfernt, man kann in Ski das Haus verlassen.
Mrs B.
Die Hütte ist sehr schön und gut ausgestattet. Wir waren 9 Erwachsene und hatten ausreichend Platz. Direkt an der Skipiste, das war richtig klasse.
Mr N.
Das Chalet war für unseren Familienurlaub mit einem Kleinkind wegen der räumlichen Ausstattung inkl. Sauna und Whirlpool und der Lage zur Piste ideal. Wir haben für 2024 schon wieder einen Skiurlaub gebucht.
Mr A.

On foot or straight on your skis: the slope runs past the village, and the nearest chairlift is about 200 metres away. No driving, no hunting for a parking space.
