Facts

Cable cars & winter tourism in Austria

With around 3,000 lifts, Austria's mountain railways are among the best in the world. Billions invested ensure state-of-the-art infrastructure, snow safety and maximum comfort.

As an economic engine, they create regional added value and stable (year-round) jobs. Sustainability, social responsibility and Alpine nature conservation take centre stage.

Technical snowmaking and state-of-the-art technologies strengthen winter tourism and are particularly environmentally friendly.

Award

Skiarea-Test 2024

Our ski resort was recently honoured as one of the most popular SnowTrex ski resorts!

But how does a ski resort actually get this award?

Snowtrex asks its customers about their satisfaction with the ski resort. The rating is divided into six levels - from very satisfied to not at all satisfied.

The top destinations are then selected based on the best ratings from these customers.
