Current information

All open cross-country ski trails in Bad Mitterndorf, Tauplitz, and on the Tauplitzalm can be found in the current Trail Report.

Especially diverse is the cross-country skiing region of Bad Mitterndorf - Tauplitz/Tauplitzalm. Here, you can choose between the sporty high-altitude trails on the Tauplitzalm and somewhat easier trails in the valley. Gentle winter landscapes and slightly hilly terrain in the valley alternate with snow-safe trails on the Alm . Professionals also appreciate this, and it often happens that you can observe various national teams during training in the region.

Additionally, there is a wide range of pampering offerings for cross-country skiers, spanning from warm hospitality to soothing relaxation in the warm thermal water at the GrimmingTherme. After a round of cross-country skiing outdoors, the cozy warmth is just what you need!

One thing right from the start: This cross-country skiing region is something very special! As part of the "Styria Salzkammergut Trails", it impresses with a network of trails that is over 130 kilometers long.
