At an altitude of 920 m in the heart of Salzburger Land, lies Flachau, where the pistes are already drenched in sun in the early morning hours. The home of world champions Hermann Maier (skiing) and Manuela Riegler (snowboarding) is not just the venue for the alpine ski world cup, but a great destination for those active during the day and night too! The resort offers a comprehensive tourism infrastructure and the "Gemütlichkeit" of a typical mountain village. During the day you can kill time shopping, sunbathing on the sun terraces or by taking part in any of the countless sports activities such as tennis or tobogganing. Evenings you can head off to the clubs, bars and numerous ski lodges for a good time until the wee hours. "Snow Space Flachau" was even chosen as the world's most innovative winter tourism concepts!

Having hardly left the piste, the numerous apres ski opportunities will beckon you to continue the good times off the slopes. The bars and pubs at the valley station invite you in to chill out or party: now is the time for a cosy chat with friends or to meet new people. A visit to the "Dampfkessel" and the "Hofstadl" should be mandatory for every apres ski fan! Dance until the sun comes up in the "Yeti's" and Ema's Pub. Those who haven't had enough of the slopes can eat dinner in one of the numerous restaurants and then head to the 1.5 km long floodlit piste 8er Jet (open twicw a week), or witness the weekly night descent of the ski school instructors. For leisurely hours away from the piste, there are tobogganing rides, ice skating, romantic horse-drawn sleigh rides through the wintery landscape or climbing sessions on offer. Relaxation can be found stroling through the resort with its lovely shops and finding a seat in one of the cafes.
