Night skiing Abtenau
Winter sports fans can turn night into day in the ski area Dachstein West. On the valley side of Gosau there is a small night ski area, that invites you to have fun on skis after the official opening hours. The lower section of the valley run at Ötscherlift is illuminated once per week for night skiing. The piste is approx. 1 km and, as a red piste, is challenging also for experienced skiers. Another part of the night skiing offer is the beginner's area at Brumsiland nearby the Hornspitzbahn lift valley station. On both pistes the extended opening hours from 18:30 - 20:30 are valid every Friday. The Hornspitz umbrella bar invites you to take a break or end the day after the evening skiing.Après ski Abtenau
Apres ski fans turn into the huts and umbrella bars in the ski area or into the bars and discos of the resort after a long day on the piste. Local specialities, but also international cuisine can be found in the inns and restaurants.
Let yourself be pampered, not only by the culinary highlights, but also with some relaxing spa treatments. There are three spa facilities in close proximity to Abtenau: "Aqua Salza Golling", "Heiltherme Bad Vigaun" (healing thermal baths) and the "Therme Amadé".
Those who want to be more active can explore nature on a guided winter hike or on one of the ski tours in the Tennengebirge.

In keeping with the fun slopes, toboggans are not the only fast means of transport for holidaymakers: fun sports such as snowbiking, airboarding or snow biking can also be tried out in Abtenau. Ice skaters, on the other hand, are drawn to the local ice rink.
