Great skiing in the ski paradise Zauchensee

Ski, board and freeride enjoyment for the whole family

Zauchensee has been the venue for FIS World Cup races for 40 years. The Gamskogel run is one of the most demanding and fastest courses in the women's skiing World Cup. From the sporty World Cup run to the wide carving run, the ski paradise of Zauchensee offers numerous slopes for every level as well as plenty of freeride fun. Families can look forward to child-friendly practice lifts, Zauchi's Kinderland and the Familypark on Rosskopf.

Thanks to the high altitude, snow is guaranteed until well into spring. The top prepared slopes and numerous adventure offers such as fun slopes, family parks, photo points, love hearts and skimovie race tracks (parallel slalom and giant slalom) leave nothing to be desired. How much action is included, everyone can decide individually.

Excellent skiing pleasure
The fact that the quality of the pistes and service in the ski paradise of Zauchensee are excellent is confirmed by the repeated awards from the international test portal skiresort.de.

Particular emphasis was placed on the snow guarantee, the quality of the cable cars and the flawless preparation of the slopes.

Freeride Eldorado Zauchensee
Among freeriders, Zauchensee has long been a hotspot for off-piste action. Away from the groomed ski slopes, a true powder paradise opens up. The so-called "East" from Gamskogel has already become a legend among freeriders on skis as well as on snowboards. Powder fans can look forward to ski routes with boundless panoramic views, untouched deep snow slopes, tree runs, moguls and many off-piste experiences. Guided tours are recommended.

Stop for a bite to eat with regional delicacies
Skiing and snowboarding in the fresh winter air make you hungry. In the ski paradise of Zauchensee, rustic huts and cozy mountain inns along the slopes invite you to take a break. The food is cooked fresh daily, preferably using regional products: At the top of the menu are typical Austrian specialties such as Kaiserschmarrn, Hüttengulasch, juicy beef steaks, Pongauer Kasnocken or steaming soups.
