Winter in Flachau

A Winter of endless possibilities

If you love snow and winter sports, you’ll love Flachau. From ambitious winter sports enthusiasts and recreational skiers to freeriders, returning skiers and little ski beginners, everyone can enjoy unforgettable days on the slopes in the home of double Olympic champion Hermann Maier. At the heart of Ski amadé, Flachau offers the perfect setting for varied days in the snow, with three ski areas, slopes for all ability levels, internationally renowned snowparks and six ski and sports schools.

But Flachau has much more to offer than skiing. Cross-country skiing, tobogganing, winter hiking and a wide range of other winter activities provide plenty of variety, while numerous ski huts and a diverse selection of restaurants and après-ski venues invite you to enjoy delicious food, relax and celebrate.

Skiing & Snowboarding in Flachau

Flachau gives you access to three distinct ski areas, each with its own unique character: Snow Space Salzburg, Shuttleberg Flachauwinkl-Kleinarl and Skiparadies Zauchensee-Flachauwinkl. The choice ranges from wide, family-friendly slopes and freestyle and adventure experiences to challenging runs, ski routes and alpine terrain.

The three ski areas are directly connected by the Panorama Link and an extensive network of lifts and slopes. All three are part of Ski amadé and can also be easily reached from Flachau by ski bus via their respective valley stations.
