Snow Space - Salzburger Sportwelt Ski area
In the Salzburger Sportwelt alone, you have 210 kilometres of slopes at your disposal at altitudes ranging from 740 to 2,176 metres. The extensive ski areas of Kleinarl/Flachauwinkl/Zauchensee and Flachau/Wagrain/St. Johann-Alpendorf are among the network’s top destinations and are renowned for events such as the Alpine Ski World Cup in Flachau. In Altenmarkt, the Radstadt-Altenmarkt ski area offers winter sports enthusiasts around 17 kilometres of slopes and seven ski lifts. The gently sloping runs and the practice slope right in the village make this ski area the perfect terrain for families and beginners. In all these resorts, families, beginners and cross-country skiers will find suitable areas, whilst advanced skiers are particularly drawn to Zauchensee. Freestylers can look forward to a variety of fun parks, such as the Absolut Park in Flachauwinkl, which offers everything a freestyler’s heart desires. At 1.6 km long, this snow park is actually one of the largest terrain parks in Europe. First-class deep-snow areas can be found at Monte Popolo or around Zauchensee. The Salzburg Sports World sets the standard in winter sports with its range of activities!
Throughout the ski resort, in mountain huts and at the lift stations, there are also around 400 Wi-Fi hotspots available. This means you can easily send all the latest photos and warm greetings from the snow to your friends back home.
The G-Link cable car provides a fast link between the Flachau-Wagrain/Grießenkareck and Wagrain/Grafenberg-Alpendorf sections of the ski resort. Almost all of the well-equipped chairlifts feature weather protection hoods and heated seats, whilst many also have an automatically closing safety bar for children. This ski resort also places great emphasis on being child- and family-friendly: there are eleven ski schools, childcare facilities, play-based ski lessons for children aged two and over, and ski courses for children aged four and over. Further highlights include Wagrain’s Winter World, the Alpine Coaster in Flachau and the Teufelsweg trail with its adventurous legendary figures.
Après ski in Snow Space - Salzburger Sportwelt
For a varied time away from the pistes, you can go tobogganing on one of the three floodlit runs or the year-round toboggan run "Lucky Flitzer", ice skating or romantic horse-drawn sleigh rides through the snow-covered winter landscape. For relaxation, head to the Therme Amadé spa in Altenmarkt, which offers a sauna area, a water landscape and children's entertainment programmes. A stroll through the villages with their shops and cafés also promises relaxation.
Culture enthusiasts will be delighted by the opportunity to take an exciting day trip to the Mozart city of Salzburg. The historic city with sights from the Middle Ages and the Baroque period can be reached in around an hour.
Snowpark Snow Space - Salzburger Sportwelt: Absolut Snowpark
A very special freestyle highlight awaits you on the Shuttleberg in Flachauwinkl in the Salzburger Sportwelt. The "Absolut Park" offers adrenaline seekers of all levels top opportunities to really let off steam. It all starts with the 5-person kicker line, which starts at the exit of the park's own 6-seater "Absolut Shuttle". The lines underlines its class with the "Spring Battle", Austria's most famous "on-mountain" snowboard contest, which takes place here. Directly next to the Kickerline, the Railline continues. Here, riders can put their skills to the test on the kinked rail, rainbow rail, hand rail, various boxes, downrails and a double kinked rail. Last but not least, the skatepark-style Easy Jibpark demands creativity and spontaneity.
Whoever thinks that this extensive range of obstacles is the end of the story is mistaken. The "Absolut Park" also has a 100 metre long half-pipe with 4 metre high walls and a SuperPipe. The 160 metre long monster is located directly above the "Family Shuttle" valley station and complies with X-Games and Olympic standards. There is also a "Chill House" in the park. This is where you can realise your last freestyle dreams, as there is much more than fat sound, video walls and plenty of space to relax. The two-storey house also has a mini skate ramp and a massive boulder rock.
In addition to the snow park, the Zauchensee ski area also has a funslope with various waves, banked turns, small jumps and other elements that promise fun for the whole family.
Another highlight is located on the Shuttleberg: Burton and the Absolut Park team have taken the time to put "The Stash" in the landscape in Flachauwinkl too. The concept is very special, because the aim here is to demonstrate creativity on obstacles, some of which are hidden, in harmony with nature. The fun and easy obstacles can be ridden in a variety of ways. At the exit of the "Powder Shuttle" there is also the "Lil' Stash", which is particularly suitable for your little creative ones.
