Winter moments of pleasure on Hauser Kaibling

If you're hungry right after your arrival, you can fortify yourself in the valley: in the AlmArenA, a hearty breakfast awaits you from 8:00 a.m., giving you a relaxed start to the day's skiing.

The first gondola takes you up to the mountain station at 8:15 a.m to Stoni's Rauchkuchl with the aroma of fresh pastries and regional specialties. Those with a little more patience will be rewarded further up in the traditional Krummholzhütte A rich buffet with farmhouse bread, Styrian cheese and fresh fruit - plus a panorama that makes the day special during breakfast.

The TOMiziel also invites you to start in style: With a view of the Dachstein and lovingly prepared delicacies, the morning begins with an alpine flair. And in the elegant Bergschlössl, the first morning sun pampers you on the panoramic terrace - probably the most beautiful place for an enjoyable start to the day's skiing.

And because a successful day's skiing also includes a stop for refreshments, several huts invite you to linger. In the d'Genussalm you can enjoy the breathtaking view to the Dachstein mountains, while the Schutzhaus Kaiblingalm scores with its rustic charm and first-class cuisine. The s'Lärchenpavillon serves homemade pizzas and welcomes you to a warm atmosphere - a place where you'll want to stay longer.

Stopping for a bite to eat is an experience for connoisseurs. On the sunny terraces, a freshly tapped drink or a glass of Styrian elderberry juice tastes twice as nice - accompanied by the panorama of the snow-covered mountains.

From the transmitter plateau, the summit lift takes you to the highest point of Schladming's 4-mountain ski area at 2,015 meters. After a photo at the summit, including a hand-written entry in the summit book , the sun-drenched downhill on the eastern slope awaits. Wide slopes, fine firn and fantastic views make this downhill a highlight for all those who love long turns.

Afterwards, culinary delights await on the east side of the mountain. Whether in style in the charming Bergschlössl hearty in the popular Knapplhütte or relaxed with a snack in the cozy Gumpenbar - All three establishments are run with great passion by the Höflehner family. On the sunny terraces, the scent of grilled ribs and homemade specialties invite you to sit down. This is where regional delicacies meet genuine hospitality - the perfect end to an enjoyable day's skiing on Hauser Kaibling.
