Mühlbach am Hochkönig

Mühlbach is new to Sunweb Holiday’s choice of destinations this year and is located in the ski resort of Hochkönigs Winterreich with connections to Maria Alm. This welcoming village sits on the Schneeberg at an altitude of 1921 meters. Entertainment is a top priority here, much to the liking of visiting families with children who are especially well catered for in Hochkönig.

It is a peaceful village with a few lovely restaurants where you can enjoy the local specialties. The evenings never really get crowded either. Instead there are a few cosy and modest après-ski options here.

There are two cross country skiing tracks in Mühlbach with a combined length of 10 kilometers. There are good hiking options too with 30 kilometers of hiking trails set out in the area. If you would you like to try sleighing there are also three sleigh pistes with a combined length of 6,9 kilometers.

Hochkönig Winterreich - Ski Amadé

This welcoming and atmospheric ski resort at the foot of the Hochkönig is a dream for skiers, snowboarders, cross country skiers, hikers and even families with children! Setting out from the scenic villages of Mühlbach, Dienten and Maria Alm you can enjoy great routes throughout the resort. Snow canons provide snow cover where and when necessary. From Maria Alm the cable car takes you directly to the 2000 metre (6,500 ft) high Aberg from where you can start some of the best descents in the Alps.

There is a 35 metre long half pipe for freeriders in Dienten and despite the many drag lifts it remains a great spot for snowboarders too. Cross country skiing can be done around all three villages and there is a total of approximately 47 km (29 ml) of tracks. The longest track in Maria Alm is 12 km (8 ml) long. There is also a 2 kilometre (1 ml) long track at Maria Alm that is lit up in the evening.
