LETS.SKI
Because the skiing is topnotch... Bright blue sky, glistening powder snow, perfectly groomed pistes covering 760 kilometres and 270 lifts in the Ski Amadé ski world – our winter sports enthusiasts get all of that here with us in the Salzburg region.
Attention early birds! Did you know that our valley offers an early morning SKIKERIKI? Believe us, it's an absolute dream to make the first tracks on a fresh slope, taking wide turns. When the sun rises, you get a very special feeling of happiness, which will certainly accompany you throughout the day...
TOBOGGANING.SLEDGING
Let it snow... Tobogganing by day and night... We can offer you 2 great toboggan runs! A 3 km long, countryside toboggan run with floodlighting leads from the Lammwirt directly through idyllic forest. The winding ride with some challenging sections leaves nothing to be desired. The toboggan express takes you to the start every hour, so you can treat yourself to this adventure more than once, even at night.
There is another great toboggan run in the Ellmau Valley, known as the Loosbühelalm run. It can be reached on foot from the "Grund" car park. Once you have arrived at the top, you have the opportunity to stop off for a bite to eat and then enjoy the 3.5 km long journey to the full. And if you like a certain kick, we recommend taking the run at night with a head torch.

CANYONING
Canyoning involves travelling "downstream" a rough canyon and overcoming the different obstacles in it. With a helmet, neoprene suit, climbing harness, rope and a state-certified guide, you are well equipped to face these challenges.

Well, if that doesn't sound like adrenaline!
