Kaiserau in the winter

Winter all-rounder

At Kaiserau, you won't miss out on anything winter-related. Whether skiing, cross-country skiing or walking around – the high plateau is ideal for escaping the fog in the valley and sticking your cold nose into the fresh winter air.

On the Kaiserau, you can go classic cross-country skiing and skating on the approximately 5 km long high-altitude trail, or get out at the car park and slip into your ski boots. There are two T-bar lifts, a platter lift and two magic carpets for the little ones. If you're still a bit wobbly on your skis or snowboard, it's best to drop by the Gesäuse Ski School, the only ski school in the Gesäuse. Equipment is also available for hire.

Map

At Kaiserau, you won't miss out on anything when it comes to winter activities. Whether skiing, cross-country skiing or walking, the high plateau at 1,100 metres above sea level is the perfect place to get some fresh winter air. There is a high-altitude cross-country ski trail, the only ski school in the Gesäuse, a toboggan run and the "Sportalm", a mountain inn where you can warm up and try regional cuisine.

Eat & sleep

Kaiserau in the Winter

They are rustic and outspoken, the Gesäuse inns.  And "regional" is not a code word in the Gesäuse, but a duty. In their backpacks they have a selection of Styrian classics to delight the palate. The traditional preparation awakens a thousand and one memories and, on balance, simply makes you blissful.

And restful sleep is possible in the Gesäuse anyway. Hotels, guesthouses, huts and campsites are scattered all over the Gesäuse. Everyone is sure to find a comfortable bed for the night. That's a promise!
