Things to do in Obertauern

Obertauern has it all! Guaranteed snow, over 100 kilometres of ski slopes, and a bustling après-ski scene. There really is something for everyone there.

The Tauernrunde is one of its most well-known ski routes, which can take you through the entire area. This route can be followed both clockwise and anticlockwise during your skiing holiday to Oberauern. Snowboarders can practice their freestyling at The Spot snowpark, and there is even a World Cup trail for cross-country skiers. Hikers will also have plenty to keep them occupied, such as the trail up to the Seekarhaus. At an altitude of 1797 metres, the view from there is simply stunning.

Obertauern’s après-ski scene is spectacular, with lively parties organised at the beginning and end of every winter season. The locals still talk about when the Beatles came to visit: much of the film Help was filmed in Obertauern!
