Home description

The apartment is located on the 7th floor of a large hotel nestled up a small winding road just outside Bad Goisern. It is ideal for large families or groups who enjoy mountain walking, mountain biking or skiing and want the privacy and flexibility of self catering or eating in the hotel, but with the facilities of a sauna, swimming pool after a hard day's activities and then relaxing on the balcony taking in the wonderful views of the Dachstein mountain as the sun sets over the mountain in front. There is plenty to do in the area being centrally located and ideal as a base for exploring the Salzkammergut region.

Bad Goisern area

WINTER.
During the winter months there is access to many ski resorts all within 20 mins drive,the largest of which is one of Austria’s best kept skiing secrets Dachstein-West region, which is great for intermediates, with limited access for beginners however ski school is available (my wife is a learner and was very impressed with the instructor's, also great for kids wanting to learn and was voted last year as one of the best ski resorts for families in Europe).

The other less well known resort near Bad Aussee is Loser, not as big but still has some great skiing with excellent views of the Dachstein mountain range and a good ski hire and school available.

For the real ski expert the Krippenstein ski area (nr Obertraun) also 20 mins away has the best off piste skiing according to several ski commentators in Europe and a brand new cable car will be open for the 07/08 season.

For the more adventurous the international ski resorts of Scladming, Obertauren, Bad Gastein and Flachau are 1 to1.25 hrs drive away with access to the third largest ski area in Europe (Ski Welt)



If you want a break from the skiing then visit Salzburg for the famous Christmas Markets

Summer

The area of Bad Goisern is transformed into a Mountain Bikers paradise and in July they host the world famous Salzkammergut Trophy (part of the World Mountain Biking Championships and the hardest circuit in the world). Hiking is excellent in the area with well marked out trails at the back of the hotel.

Guestbook

We had a wonderful time, lovely scenery with a nice central location which made it easy to visit the main attractions of the Salzkammergut. Halstatt which is just 5 mins by car or get the train from the village and boat across the lake is stunning. Our grand parents will be back next year. Mr & Mrs S, Florence Italy

What a great location, wonderfully spacious apartment with great sunny balcony and so private. The food was excellent in the hotel and very reasonable. Also enjoyed eating in the many restaurants in and around Bad Goisern, Halstatt and Bad Ischl Mr & Mrs Jones, Cornwall, UK

You have a very nice apartment situated in a very nice place.
The weather was really good: many snow, sun and no frost, so we had a very good skiing.
Alpenhotel Dachstein is a really nice place, Mr & Mrs Gaydarov, Moscow, Russia

Great area for skiing and snowboarding, had access to over 20 ski resorts within up to 1 hrs drive. Apartment spacious ideal for our 6 person snowboard party and able to store equipment easily. The Dutch Snowboaders, Amsterdam
