From the Goldbergbahn mountain station, the S 1 leads over undulating, hilly, flat but very wide terrain to the Goldbergbahn middle station. Connections to the valley are the S 5 and the S 4

The S 5 is another black piste and therefore quite challenging! It leads over very steep and sloping, narrow terrain towards the valley!

A nice but short section of medium gradient!

From the Goldbergbahn mountain station, the S 2 runs over moderately steep, undulating and very wide terrain to the middle station. Connections to the valley are the S 5 and the S 4

The S 3 runs from the mountain station of the Kreuzkogel T-bar lift over a very wide, undulating terrain in the centre (similar to the S 2) down into the valley. It joins the S 6 shortly before the middle station

The S3a is a short section that connects the S6 and the S4. This descent allows you to bypass the middle station and take the valley descent directly.

The Mooskar descent runs from the middle station over moderately wide, slightly sloping terrain towards the valley, followed towards the end by a long downhill section to the valley station

The black Mooskar run serves as a bypass to the red run and is very challenging. It leads into the valley!

The Knappensee descent leads from the mountain station of the Kreuzkogel T-bar lift over a moderately steep, wide slope towards the middle station. Towards the end of the descent, the wide S 6 leads into a narrow ski trail to the middle station. Connections are the S 5 and the S 4

The Golden Powder route is the longest in the ski area, with the ideal access point just below the mountain terminal of the Goldbergbahn lift. The end of this run feeds straight into the next route (the Golden Rush), allowing you to freeride all the way down to the valley.

The Golden Rush route begins right at the end of the Golden Powder run. The mid section, especially, is rather steep, ideal for experienced freeriders. At the end of the route, you’ll find yourself right outside the valley terminal of the Goldbergbahn lift.

The starting point of the Golden Ride route is directly next to the valley terminal of the Kreuzkogel tow. This is the shortest route, making it ideally suited as a warm-up and sure to whet your appetite for more.

Starting point: Car park next to the valley station of the Goldbergbahn in Sportgastein.
Piste ski tour course: Ascent with the Goldbergbahn I - the actual climb begins at the lift mid-station. From here, you will follow the signposted route along the piste S6 up to the mountain station. At the beginning there are still somewhat steeper slopes to overcome, then it continues over a flat, undulating terrain before taking the last mediumsteep ascent to the mountain station. The summit of the Kreuzkogel can be reached in around 5 minutes from the mountain station.
