Ski touring in the Osterhorngruppe
From the hotel straight to the summit — the Loibersbachhöhe training trail for beginners, more demanding routes for the experienced.
Discover ski toursWinter around the Hintersee is quiet and close. Snow is reliable here — the Gaissau-Hintersee area is considered Salzburg’s most snow-sure ski area. Those who go ski touring set off from the village straight into the Osterhorngruppe. If you prefer to glide, the trail starts at the hotel door.
The hotel rents Hagan touring skis as well as Kästle cross-country skis and snowshoes with poles. For children and those taking it easy, the hotel’s own toboggan run awaits — 500 metres long, an eight-minute walk away.
