Cross-Country Skiing in Flachau You can choose from a great variety of well-maintained nordic tracks, for example the 40km village track or the popular 50km Tauern track from Flachau via Altenmarkt/Zauchensee to Radstadt and Eben.
The cross-country skier is truly spoilt for choice here! Choose from a dense network of 220km of beautiful tracks of which 160km are linked. Filzmoos even boasts a high alpine trail which is accessible by "Papageno" gondola.
Become a professional alpine skier in no time at all ... but of course playful learning is the most important thing when learning to ski.
Fun & Action off the Runs! Snow rafting and snow tubing offer pure, exhilarating fun for all ages.
But these are only a few of the many activities available here! Plenty of guts are need for "zorbing": Imagine yourself suspended inside a ten-foot clear plastic sphere by nylon ropes, then rolled to the top of a steep hill and pushed off. No brakes, no steering, just you and gravity.
Sledding Sledding is as about as close to pure, unalloyed fun as a grown-up is allowed to get!
Flachau offers a great variety of fun sled tracks which will satisfy everyone: Sattelbauer track (4km), Winklalm track (3km), Munzenhof and Brennhütt´n (3km) and Winterbauer (3km).
Spend romantic hours in great sunshine and wonderful snow, in a quaint alpine hut or a horse-drawn carriage ride enjoying the magic winter wonderland.
Great tension guaranteed - always when the ski world cup takes place in Flachau. Our local champion Hermann Maier is always taking part, of course!
Carving under starry sky Because after daylight skiing Flachau switches on its lights. Floodlight skiing in the evening, a great opportunity to go skiing or boarding. Or the ultimative skiing experience for late risers.
