Where, once upon a time, the Beatles left their marks
Obertauern is considered to be the snowiest area in Austria, after all, snow clouds from the north and south meet at the, up to 2,500-metre-high mountains, and leave their white splendour behind before moving on. Even the Beatles were enthusiastic about the legend of Obertauern and now, a few generations later, Obertauern has lost none of its fascination as a ski paradise.
Welcome to the Obertauern ski area
Varied downhill runs for every skill level, huts and refreshment stops from rustic to modern, mountain experiences and fun on the slopes – all this and more is Obertauern in the Salzburger Land. From night skiing to freeriding and fun snow parks, the ski area also delights with special sporting highlights through the season. And the greatest part of all of this, is that Zirbenhof is at the heart of it all, with its ski in and ski out access you are on the mountain in minutes.
„Weil Skifoan is des Leiwandste …“
Whether you’re already carving up perfect turns or have yet to put a ski on the snow, Obertauern really does offer you everything you could possibly need. Hopefully by the end of your stay you’ll be ready for the unofficial Austrian skier’s anthem: ‘Weil i wü, Schifoan, Schifoan, wow, wow, wow, Schifoan!’
