Flachau - Ski, Snowboard & Summer Holidays

m, the four valleys of St Johann, Wagrain, Flachau and Zauchensee have 320km of largely intermediate cruising, served by more than 120 lifts. They are all covered by the same lift ticket, but not all are directly linked.

Flachau's chief claim to fame these days is that it is the home of Hermann Maier. His father (also Hermann) runs a ski school here and younger brother Alexander operates a snowboard school.

Flachau is famous for its immaculately prepared and diverse slopes. The choice ranges from simple pistes for beginners, to a variety of red runs, up to a permanent advanced section. Hi-tech lifts, with a 26,000 person uplift capacity per hr, guarantee a fast and comfortable ascent without delay. 5 storing units with a total capacity of 180,000 m3, as well as 130 snow cannons, provide 100% snow guarantee. The Flachau Cable Car company ( Flachauer Bergbahnen ) has recently invested approximately 6 Million Euros the into the development of the skiing area.
