Gasthof Platzwirt
Gasthof Platzwirt
The Authentic Gasthof Platzwirt is located right in the car-free centre of Rauris. It is a cosy, traditional Austrian hotel close to the ski lift. The Hochalm gondola is also just 400 metres away. Gasthof Platzwirt consists of 2 parts: a main building and an annex, which is located 200 metres from the main building. If you book a room in the annex building, both breakfast and dinner will be served in the main building.
The hotel has a sauna and a steam bath, where you can completely relax after a day out on the slopes. The ski area of Rauris is small, but as a result very quiet, and therefore suitable for families with children who have not yet learnt to ski.

Rauris is a small cosy skiing village. The majority of the hotels are on the main street that runs through the centre of the village. This street is approximately one kilometre long. There is a ski bus that stops at various points close to the hotels and pensions. The bus rides to a timetable. You will be dropped off at one of the two ski lifts that leave from the village.
The skiing area of Rauris is particularly suited for beginners and small children. The Hochalmbaan is really super. The gondola lift takes you to an altitude of 1800 metres to a wonderful, broad blue piste. There is also a red or black piste for the more experienced skiers. All of the pistes are perfectly prepared on a daily basis. In short, it is a really cosy skiing area for families.
