Riesneralm

More skiing, less lift riding

If you're out and about on the Riesneralm, you'll quickly realize that it's not about masses, but about real skiing pleasure. In the idyllic Donnersbachwald forest, a winter paradise awaits you with plenty of room for turns - without any hustle and bustle. Instead of large gondolas, the Riesneralm relies on manageable lifts, but all the longer runs, slopes with great views and a well thought-out offer for families and pleasure-seekers
  • 32 varied kilometers of slopes - from leisurely to sporty
  • 4 extra-long valley runs with up to 900 vertical meters
  • Skiing fun on sunny panoramic slopes
  • 1st Austrian children's ski area with 5 lifts and 5 child-friendly runs - unique in this form
  • Spacious children's area
  • Professional ski school for young (and old) snow sports fans

Right next to the valley station you will find the Platzl Riesneralm - your central meeting point for everything you need: from ski rental and sports store to tourist information and a new hairstyle. The Riesneralm stands for skiing fun close to nature with personal charm - perfect for families and connoisseurs.
