In the west of the Graz region, in the home of the Lippizan horse and Styrian backpack villages, the ski slopes are perfectly prepared. All beginnings are hard, they say, but it doesn’t have to be that way! Depending on your preference, a course in skiing, cross-country skiing or snowboarding is an option. It is definitely worth it and it is a lot of fun! 

Get terrific peak experiences without a lift.
