Winter holiday & Ski holiday

Holidays in the Alps – in Salzburger Land. Away from the big party ski areas, you will find the most family-friendly ski area in Austria. The Almenwelt Lofer and the high-altitude Heutal ski area await you every morning with perfectly groomed pistes and inviting ski huts. You can round off your perfect day of skiing in an après-ski bar or in the comfort of our own indoor pool.

You can store your ski equipment safely in the lockable ski cellar. The free ski bus stops directly at the Grubhof holiday flat!
