As soon as the first snowflakes start to fall, the Murtal district is transfor- med into a true winter wonderland!

Murtal’s 8 skiing mountains boast perfectly prepa- red pistes and reliable snow conditions whilst offe- ring many challenging downhill descents for skiing pros. Fun and action are also an important part of your winter holiday: whiz down the Turracher Höhe on the “Nocky Flitzer” Alpine rollercoaster, have a go on the tubing track, experience the clear sky when descending the mountain during a night ski tour or ask the “Piste Butler” for a glass of sparkling wine or an ice-cream!

Why not try something romantic: a torch-lit hike, a ski tour or a winter hike? Or get into the holiday spirit with activities off the ski slopes: cross-country skiing, tobogganing, snow-shoe hiking, ice skating, Austrian curling or a horse-drawn sleigh ride.
