Cross-country skiing

Discover the most beautiful areas of the Gastein valley! With over 55 miles of the best prepared cross-country skiing tracks, Gastein is a paradise for cross-country skiers. Sportgastein lures people to cross-country fun until into the spring, being snow-sure at a high altitude of 1600m above sea level. The flood-lit cross-country tracks in Bad Gastein-Böckstein encourage you to do a little sport in the evenings, too.

Snow shoe hiking

Who do the tracks in the snow belong to? Hike on led tours (that are offered throughout the winter in the Gastein valley) through nature and, with a bit of luck, see who the tracks in the glittering snow belong to.

Toboggan fun

Guaranteed fun for the whole family. You can also curve into the valley in the evenings on the illuminated courses.

Horse drawn carriage rides

Wrapped up warm, let yourself be pulled through the splendid winter landscape. Enjoy the calm of nature accompanied by a rhythmic bell that swings from the horse's neck.
