American-style resort

Snow sure hidden gem

A hidden gem of a ski area that combines with Flachauwinkl & Kleinarl and offers skiing across 3 valleys. The resorts are located just above the resorts of Flachau and Wagrain and are linked by the Panorama lift so a great access point for the larger the Salzburger Sportwelt area. The three valleys offer some of the best confidence building slopes including the fabulous World Cup in Zauchensee itself that will fully test all abilities.

The perfect set-up

Zauchensee offers a fabulous American style resort set up with a large ‘mall’ style base station structure as the main starting point. The base contains a number of eating options, and shops etc. Most groups will head straight up the Schwarzwandbahn gondola to get close to the Gamskogel peak before attempting the World Cup run. However, the good news is that there is a lovely winding blue run back down from the peak that meets up with a number of other red runs so regardless of your ability level you will be able to descend the hill without any major issues. Also feeding out close to the base station are 3 other chair lifts plus the Rosskopfbahn gondola that will whisk skiers up to the Rosskopf peak and the long blue and red runs back to the base or down the other side to Flachauwinkl.

Explore at Your Pace

From the top of the Mooskopf peak you can ski down to Kleinarl on a variety of runs with a few more testing but well worth the effort! You can also jump on the Panorama lift to access the Flachau ski area and from there into Wagrain and on to Alpendorf – you can be assured that our instructors will ensure that you are well looked after and explore as much of this great area as possible.

Accommodation

Family Friendly Fun

Flachauwinkl side of the mountain is usually quieter and well worth the visit. Once in Flachauwinkl a short hop across the car park gets you onto the aptly named Sunshine Shuttle and then onto the Family Shuttle. As you would guess from the names Flachauwinkl is very family orientated and the mainly blue runs are fabulous playgrounds for new skiers. The resort also boasts one of the best half-pipes & super pipes in the valley plus the superb Absolut Snowpark and the Chill House mountain hut for refuelling both mind and body.
