Ski holidays Mallnitz - a sea of mountain peaks!

Mallnitz

The lovely resort Mallnitz provides excellent value for the price, and is thus destined for great things! At an altitude of about 1,200 m at the foot of the Ankogel (3,252 m), one of the tallest mountains in Carinthia. The infrastructure in the hospitable resort is perfectly geared toward winter holidays. With its small-town charm, Mallnitz is an ideal spot for families and those seeking relaxation.

And in culinary terms, the mountain offers total diversity. At the edge of the Mölltal Glacier at 2,800 m you'll find the highest winter garden in all of Carinthia and the panorama restaurant ''Eissee''. The enormous construction of steel and glass bethrones the so-called eternal ice, and reflects in its glass surfaces the mountain world from the Schareck over the Sonnblick all the way to the Lienzer Dolomites. The menu also ''mirrors'' the delicacies of Carinthia as well as international cuisine. This ''glass palace'' is also easily accessible for non-skiers via the Glacier Express and the Eissee gondola.

Mölltal Glacier

"100% sun, snow and skiing fun" – the formula for success at the Mölltal Glacier and Ankogel is as simple as it is understandable. The 3,122-metre-high Mölltal Glacier is one of Austria's most snow-sure glacier ski areas. The southern side of the Alps is statistically the sunniest region in Austria. The panoramic view of around 30 three-thousand-metre peaks in the Hohe Tauern is unique in Austria. Affectionately known as "Mölli" by its fans, Carinthia's only glacier ski area tempts visitors to enjoy the finest powder snow from the end of September onwards.

Almost 50 kilometres of snow-sure slopes await you on the Mölltal Glacier and the nearby Ankogel. The Ankogel is also a challenge for fitness enthusiasts and off-piste artists, but leisurely carvers and boarders have long since discovered the generously wide slopes for themselves. The added bonus on "Mölli" and Ankogel: there are no waiting times at the lifts and no rush hours on the slopes. Both ski areas are characterised by typical Carinthian cosiness – a heart-warming mixture of serenity and hospitality. Ice skating and tobogganing are also guaranteed to be fast-paced and great fun. A visit to the "Tauern-Bad" spa is an absolute treat after or instead of winter sport activities.
