Winter Holiday in Russbach | Dachstein West Ski Region | Salzburger Land
When the winter sun makes the snow sparkle.
Right in the heart of the Dachstein West ski region lies Reiters Ferienhaus – perfect for families, friends and anyone who loves to experience winter the real way: on the slopes, snowshoeing through the forest, or simply in the garden with a view of the mountains.
Just a few minutes from the house, your ski day begins with the Hornbahn Russbach ↗︎.
The ski bus stop is right outside the holiday home.
At the valley station you’ll find everything under one roof – lift ticket office, ski rental, shop and ski depot.
And then it’s off into pure winter: 70 lifts, over 140 km of perfectly groomed pistes and three resorts – Russbach, Gosau and Annaberg ↗︎ – joining together to form one vast snowy world.
Whether it’s your first time on skis or you’re carving fresh tracks through the powder, Dachstein West has a line for everyone.
And when it’s time for a break, there’s always a mountain hut waiting with a Germknödel and a view found nowhere else.
For a gentler pace: Snowshoeing & Winter Calm
Not everyone needs speed to find happiness.
Sometimes it’s enough to step into the snow and simply start walking.
The Russbach Ski School ↗︎ also offers guided snowshoe hikes –
a wonderful way to discover the peaceful side of winter.
Whether skiing or snowshoeing, you’ll find a dedicated drying room right here in the house.
Cross-country skiing, bus rides & deep breaths
Just five kilometres away lies Gosau,
with beautifully prepared trails for those who prefer gliding to carving.
In Abtenau, about twelve kilometres further on,
you’ll find a larger cross-country area with panoramic views and plenty of fresh mountain air.
And the best part:
With the Guest Mobility Ticket ↗︎, you can travel free of charge on the Postbus
to neighbouring villages and back again – sustainable, easy and completely stress-free.
