A gentle winter sport at austria's greatest ski paradise

Are you familiar with the following situation? The air is freezing cold, and with every exhale a little cloud forms in front of your face – that’s when winter shows its true colours. A thick blanket of snow covers the mountain pastures and slopes.
The snow gently crunches underneath your feet and the sun is shining from the sky. Perfect conditions for a snowshoe hike after an eventful ski day in the wondrous world of Ski amadé! 

The route network branching out in all directions at the five regions lets you enter a breathtaking alpine setting that will have you in awe. What an amazing alternative to skiing or snowboarding! With snowshoes strapped to your feet, you’ll head out into the powder snow. Because once you’ve put them on, there’s no holding back in the snow! Time to explore the mountains of Styria and the Salzburger Land region step by step. 

Let go, relax and let your mind wander!

Your snowshoe experience in ski amadé

Brain: off; fresh air: in! That’s one of best experiences when ambitious snowshoe hikers wade through pristine natural landscapes. It’s the perfect sport to clear your head and fill your lungs with fresh mountain air. 

A total of five regions can be explored on foot: from the Salzburger Sportwelt to Schladming-Dachstein, Gastein, the Hochkönig and Grossarl Valley. And at every resort, beautiful snowshoe routes await winter sports enthusiasts. 

On the Loosbühelalm  in Grossarl at 1,769 metres above sea level, in Filzmoos, in Flachau or in Gastein: The snowshoe routes are accessible for everyone. You don’t have the right equipment at hand? There are sports rentals  at every village where you can rent your snowshoes.

Sonnalm Zauchensee – Sense of home and cosiness at 1740 metre altitude int the middle of the ski area Zauchensee. Traditional cottage in old wood with great sun terrace and outlook to the mountain world directly at the slope. Austrian kitchen with local delicacies and liqueurs, schnaps and beef from the own farm. (Kirchgassgut).

In the summer surrounded by green meadows and magnificent forests in an idyllic mountain setting.

In the winter directly on the ski slopes, in the center of the Schischaukel Radstadt - Altenmarkt. !

Direkt an der Piste inmitten des Familienschigebietes Hochkeil - Schilift direkt vorm Haus!

Unser Haus befindet sich inmitten der Schladminger 4-Berge Skischaukel "Hauser Kaibling - Planai - Hochwurzen - Reiteralm" mit 124 Pistenkilometern und 46 Seilbahnanlagen eingebettet in eine malerische Landschaft im steirischen Ennstal.


The Starchen Stadl is a place of encounter. A forge of friendship. For you, we really put our backs into it. Our delicious food and beverages come mostly from our own agriculture and hunting. The variety of schnapps is distilled by the senior chef with great skill and in the highest quality. The farmer bread kneads the senior boss with great passion on the farm itself. It is thanks to the creativity of Sepp, the landlord, that the barn with its unmistakable flair shines in new splendor. All carpentry work on the building as well as the loving details in the hut he has realized himself.

The good soul of the house is Kati: she keeps everything and everyone together - because she builds and maintains friendships, personally greets guests and remembers who likes what best. Josef Junior provides the musical highlight with his unusual talent: he plays the accordion while riding the hoverboard. His little brother Johannes accompanies him on the trumpet.

Why are we doing all this?
Because we want you to feel at home with us and have a really good time here. And because tradition, cordiality and hospitality are close to our hearts. We are completely honest about that. And you will feel that: when partying in the après-ski area as well as when relaxing in the champagne lounge or feasting on the roof terrace. Grounded and yet open to new things, we look forward to the future and wish you an unforgettable stay with us.
