Tested and awarded many timesTo what an extent Großarl’s ski offers score in interna-

tional comparison not only proves the past successful

winter seasons but also the assessment by international

expert judges. For example, the Großarltal-Dorfgastein

ski link won the 2004/05 European Ski Area Test in the

categories “snow-making”, “slope maintenance” and

“ticket office competence” and achieved the excellent

second place overall. The constantly perfectly groomed

pistes have become the hallmark of the Großarltal ski

region. Together with the unique nature experience and

the great hospitality here in the Großarltal valley, these

are perfect conditions to let your skiing holiday really

become sheer poetry …

The very special thing of summer in the Großarltal valley is the wealth

of serviced Alpine huts. Like in times gone by, still today the farmers

bring their cattle and sheep to the high-lying Alpine pastures to let them

graze on the lush mountain meadows. There are almost 40 huts which

provide the hikers on their tours with homemade delicacies, from a glass

of freshmilk, homemade bread and the tasty yellow Alpine butter to the

famous home-distilled schnapps.

In harmony with nature

This could be the motto of your next hiking holiday in the Großarltal.

About 220 km of marked hiking paths will take you through the unique

fauna and flora of the local mountains, as far as into the region of the

Hohe Tauern National Park at the end of the valley. For mountain bikers

there are about 120 km of marked trails throughout the valley.

Our GREEN side

In the Großarltal nature is still intact. Different measures, such as the

supply of the villages Großarl and Unterberg with heat from the almost

emission-free, wood-firedwood chip heating plant, guarantee that youwill

spend a wonderful holiday here in the nature.

S U M M E R I N T H E “ VA L L EY O FT H E A L P I N E PAST U R ES”

Fresh snow, fresh snow, fresh snow

We ask for your understanding that despite grooming thequality of the pistes can suffer, especially on days after heavysnowfalls, as the fresh snow that is so much loved by wintersports enthusiasts has not compacted with the compressedsnowcovering of the piste underneath and thus tends tocreate snow heaps.

November – 20 th

December 2009

Even the Christ Child would take a holiday here … at the

“Salzburger Bergadvent” in the Großarltal:

Enjoy an Advent market where quality, originality and tradi-

tion are in the foreground. Advent in the mountains in the

valley of alpine pastures is a conscious counterworld of the

hectic bustle before Christmas in the cities. Experience the

snow-covered world of mountains in the valley of alpine pa-

stures and listen to the sounds of the musicians at torch

walks and Advent singing events. Smell the fruity scent of

mulled wine, punch and fresh fruit cake. Enjoy with all your

senses the unique “Salzburger Bergadvent”, the Advent in

the Salzburg mountains, in the Großarltal … Advent like it

was in our childhood … Advent like it used to be! www.salzburger-bergadvent.at
