Winter Vacation at Hotel Palace

WINTER MAGIC & FUN ON THE SLOPES IN THE GASTEINERTAL

Are you in search of a ski hotel in Salzburger Land? In the Gasteinertal?

Awaiting all skiers and snowboarders are 250 km of perfectly prepared and modernly equipped slopes. This will make the pulse of all winter sports enthusiasts race faster with excitement. The ski bus stops in front of the hotel and will take you directly to the 4 ski areas.

For hotel guests who prefer a more leisurely approach, we recommend exploring the Gasteinertal in Salzburger Land with touring skis or snowshoes.

There are also perfectly prepared cross-country trails in and around Gastein for cross-country skiing fans. This sport promotes fitness and strengthens the cardiovascular system. Paired with the pristine nature of Gastein, this is ideal recreation that provides strength for the body and balance.

Did you forget a piece of your skiing equipment? No problem. You can rent exactly what you need in the ski shop in the hotel.
