Bring the kids to Feuerkogel Ski Resort, one of Austria’s most family-friendly alpine activity resorts. In addition to the easy to moderate ski runs, the resort has several marked snowshoe trails, as well as an exciting children's snow park. When the sun sets, retreat to the inviting inns and enjoy a hearty meal in one of the many restaurants.
Feuerkogel Ski Resort offers an impressive range of ski runs. Choose to ski or snowboard down the more relaxed runs, which are perfect for beginners. If you’re an advanced skier, try something a little more challenging. Head out into the pristine wilderness on one of the snowshoe trails to appreciate the impressive winter landscape.
Whizz 5,259 feet (1,600 meters) up to the Feuerkogel high plateau on the traditional cable car lift, which celebrated its 90th anniversary in 2017. Enjoy the views across Lake Traunsee in the midst of the breathtaking Salzkammergut region. This is one of the sunniest spots in Austria. Grab your camera and snap away at the vista of Dachstein and the lake region twinkling below.
Let the children run wild at Franzi’s Dragon Park, a winter wonderland featuring snowy slopes and winter games. Marvel at the igloo and observe the floodlit night race.
Off the slopes, Feuerkogel Ski Resort is a welcoming place. Settle in at alpine inns with roaring log fires, snuggle up on wooden decks with a glass of something warm to drink, or take the family to one of the charmingly rustic dining rooms for a meal of local delicacies.
Feuerkogel Ski Resort is located on Lake Traun in the Salzkammergut. Its mild elevation of between 1,453 feet (443 meters) and 5,331 feet (1,625 meters) adds to its appeal as a family destination. The closest town is Ebensee and there are public transportation links, including a train service, during the winter ski season. You can also ride the free Traunsee Winter Shuttle, which goes between Gmunden at the northern end of the lake and Feuerkogel.
