Ski holidays Gosau - family-friendly ski enjoyment!

Gosau

In the upper Austrian "Gosauer Hintertal", not far from Salzburg, is the resort Gosau. Its three districts Vordertal, Mittertal and Hintertal stretch over 11 km in a beautiful upper valley at the foot of the Gosau ridge. As in the other resorts in the region, visitors can experience true Austrian traditions in Gosau. Families in particular value the area around the Dachstein West ski area, as easy to intermediate pistes are not all that Gosau has to offer. Relaxation opportunities in addition to the snowy sports world provide non-skiers with a wonderful, unforgettable time.

Dachstein Salzkammergut

The inner Salzkammergut is a historical and scenic cultural area in the foothills of the Northern Alps, stretching from around the Dachstein massif from Bad Ischl in the North to Bad Mitterndorf in the East. Hence, the entire Salzkammergut lies in the federal states of Upper Austria, Styria and Salzburg, whereas Dachstein lies mainly in Upper Austria.

The Dachstein massif is rich in salt, attributing the region an important role as far back as the 14th century. On top of that, some important archaeological findings were made. The unique environment together with the historically important cultural landscape made the area become a UNESCO World Natural and World Cultural Heritage site in 1997. Today, the salt mines and the panorama of the World Natural Heritage region are great tourist attractions, just like the diverse winter sports offers at the Dachstein massif.
