The Dachstein-Tauern Region - any attempt to describe the atmosphere here and all the many and varied opportunities,
always seems to end in failure or cliches which simply don't do justice to our own personal piece of heaven. 

The impressions which you will take home with you are simply too varied, too unique - imagine hiking for mile upon mile along romantic walking trails far away from the busy roads. Idyllic winter landscapes invite you to ski, snowboard, carve, enjoy an enchanting horse-drawn sleigh ride and so much more. 

One of the most superbly laid-out cross-country glacier trails on the Dachstein offers ever-changing highlights and magical winter landscapes. The region on and around the Dachstein has developed in recent years into a sports mecca renowned throughout the world. 
In 1999, this was the venue for the Nordic Ski World Championships. Pichl is centrally located in the midst of the "Ski Amadé" alliance, with free ski shuttles, state-of-the-art lifts and modern snow-making equipment. Crowded slopes and long waits are truly a thing of the past. 
The Amade Ski Alliance encompasses these regions: Salzburger Sportwelt, Schladming- Dachstein- Tauern, Gastein, Grossarltal and Hochkönig's Winter Kingdom. 
Which means, you have access to an almost unimaginable 865 (!) km of slopes and 276 lifts - all on a single pass!

Our region also serves up countless opportunities during the summer months: hiking and cycling paths, numerous cultural and tourist attractions, and an imposing Alpine world just waiting to be explored by you. And the picture is completed by swimming lakes, beautiful in- and outdoor pools, and all kinds of summer events.
