December – March

Winter at Lake Traunsee has a charm all of its own. While the lake steams in the morning light and the peaks glow under fresh snow, the region's ski areas open their slopes. Our Katzerhaus in Ebensee is just 600 m from the Feuerkogel cable car – it doesn't get more convenient than that.

But a winter holiday at Lake Traunsee is about more than skiing: snowshoe tours on quiet trails, ice skating on frozen mountain lakes and the stillness of a snow-covered cultural landscape await you.

Snowshoeing

Snowshoes open up entirely new paths in winter. The high plateaus around the Feuerkogel and the Traunstein offer dreamlike winter landscapes away from the slopes.

All difficulty levels

Tobogganing & Sledging

Toboggan runs in the region mean pure fun for young and old. At the Katzerhaus, a shed is ready for sledges, bobs and snow saucers.

Ice Skating

In harsh winters, smaller mountain lakes in the region freeze over and invite you to skate – an experience from another century.

Weather permitting

Feuerkogel Cable Car

The Feuerkogel cable car runs in winter too. At the top, a white high plateau with sweeping views over the Salzkammergut awaits – perfect for winter hikers and snowshoers.

Winter Hiking

Groomed cross-country tracks and cleared winter hiking trails lead through the snow-covered landscape of the Salzkammergut. Ideal for anyone seeking winter calm away from the slopes.
