For speedy, safe learning, improving and perfecting your ski and snowboard skills we recommend Skischule Krallinger. The ski school is just a few minutes’ walk from Hotel Enzian and offers private lessons and group courses. Bettina Krallinger is also available every Saturday at 18.00 at our hotel bar to provide bespoke advice.
For those who have a passion for skiing and are looking for more of a challenge, to enjoy those first experiences of deep snow, or who want to improve their carving technique, we recommend private lessons with Mia Veit from the ski school, Local Guides. Here you will be accompanied and receive training from the best ski and snowboard instructors. Reception can help provide more information and for your booking – or send an e-mail to m.veit@ enzian.net
Where is the nearest cross-country trail?
Hundsfeldloipe: Access to this sunny aspect trail is to the north of the sport centre (approx. 10 minute walk from the Enzian). The loveliest section extends right through the conservation area at Hundsfeldmoor, ending with a speedy descent to the sports centre. Another access point to Hundsfeldloipe is situated close to the kiting area. Length: approx. 6km
World Cup trail: Start of this promising, medium difficulty level trail is at Zehnerkar car park P2, which is best accessed by car or by ski bus. From the Zehnerkar valley station up to Felseralm you get to enjoy the landscape and the tranquillity of Weninger Au. Length: approx. 6km
What lift takes me back to the Enzian?
For your return journey to the hotel – or your last descent – the best one to take is the Achenrainbahn or Gamsleitenbahn 1.
As a non-skier, what is there for me to do?
We have an extensive selection of activities right here at the hotel for non-skiers: Our gym and the pool area are open from 7.00, while the relaxation and caldarium are open from 11.00. The saunas and steam baths are available from 1 pm. Our entire spa offer can be seen here. Cosmetics and massages are available from 9.00, so too is the reading or gambeling area at our bar.
Obertauern also has a great deal to offer away from the pistes. Winter hikes with or without snow shoes, snowkiting, snowbiking and cross-country skiing for instance. At the Gnadenalm – approx. 5 km away – you can also go tobogganing, dabble on the Biathlon trail or enjoy a horse-drawn sled ride. Reception are happy to help if you would like to make an advance reservation. More information can also be found here.
