Ski area 3 Länder Freizeit-Arena
The local ski area of Waidring, the "Steinplatte-Winklmoosalm", is located at 740 - 1,860 m altitude and offers unique panoramic views of the mountain landscape from all of its stations. A highlight since 2014 is the modern 6-person chair lift Kammerkör with a weather cover and heated seats, which ultimately replaces the 3-person chair lift.
On the Steinplatte, skiers' hearts beat faster: well prepared and wide pistes with a total length of 42 km, modern chairlifts and gondolas as well as a fun park for the necessary diversity are right at your doorstep. In addition to top-class snow conditions, the area offers one thing above all: plenty of sun! Since the ski region of Dreiländereck Tirol, Salzburg and Bavaria is situated on a high plateau, there are perfect preconditions for lots of snow, and icy pistes is a rare phenomenon. The majority of pistes are easy to intermediate, but the steep slopes under the Steinplatte make sure also experienced skiers get their full money's worth.
However, the surrounding ski areas, such as the family-friendly area on the Buchensteinwand. To those loving variety, we recommend upgrading to Super Ski Card. This lift pass is also valid in e.g. Wilder Kaiser - Brixental and Ski Juwel (Alpbachtal and Wildschönau). Boundless ski fun is offered in to altogether 21 ski regions in Tyrol and Salzburg, with 926 lifts and 2,750 km of piste!
Après ski Waidring (Steinplatte)
The little ones can enjoy themselves on the toboggan run at Oberweissbach, which is 2 km long and illuminated in the evenings. At Brandtnerhof however, you can also speed down the mountain on snow tubes. A total of 100 km of hiking trails lead you the magnificent winter landscape on a slightly slower note. Or you can choose to take a seat on one of the horse-drawn carriages.
If you rather care to spend your time more quietly, you can take a tour to the indoor pool in St. Ulrich, or to the "Aubad" in Fieberbrunn. A visit to the Lamprechts caves in Weißbach is also worth the travel. It is the largest cave system within Europe.
