Skiers, snowboarders and others can look forward to a ski holiday. The lifts will begin operating continuously on December 1, 8 or 15.
Early winter season in Carinthia
Early snowfall meant that the winter season could start ahead of schedule. Snow depths of up to 1 m are drawing many people to Carinthia for winter sports. And there is plenty on offer. Carinthia’s mountains are among the most attractive Alpine landscapes. Peaks over 3,000 m and mid-mountain terrain offer pistes of every difficulty level, from easy to challenging.

Sunny location and southern charm
The sunny location and southern charm also attract winter sports enthusiasts. Carinthia lies on the Italian border. With plenty of sunny days and still very reliable snow, the Nassfeld winter sports area is especially appealing. Particularly welcome: there’s no waiting at Nassfeld’s ski lifts! More than 44,000 people can be transported up to an altitude of 2,000 m in one hour. Snowboarders can burn off energy at the Snow-Cross Park (Tressdorfer Alm) and the Snowboardarea (Garnitzen). The Carnia floodlit run will also interest snowboarders. At 2.2 km, it is one of the longest pistes in Europe.
Falkert ski resort
There are no queues at the Falkert ski resort either. Hustle, mass tourism and crowds are unheard of here. A ski holiday in Falkert makes it easy to leave everyday life behind. The region is also very family-friendly. At an altitude of 2,300 m, the magnificent panoramic view from the summit cross is especially beautiful on a sunny day. It is also very convenient to stay in a holiday house or apartment right by the pistes. You can leisurely glide down the slopes or take part in races. Don’t miss the night toboggan run.
