Ski area Lachtal und Kreischberg

With the 2-in-1 lift pass "Kreischberg & Lachtal" you will have access to 68 km of pistes in two of the largest ski areas of Styria. Pleasure skiers, diversity lovers, powder fans, freestyler and families with children will get their money's worth.

The 42 km of pistes in the ski area Kreischberg are located at the Kreischberg (2,002 m) and the Rosenkranzhöhe (2,118) and have received multiple rewards. Due to the upgraded and modern snow-making facilities about 90% of the pistes can be covered with artificial snow, which makes for great snow reliability. A modern 10-person gondola takes you to the wide pistes with panoramic view. The speed check run, as well as the permanent racing track gives like-minded speed lovers a chance to compare their skill.

There are also several attractions for the little ones: At the Kreischi lift you will find a large children's area with mogul piste, tubing run, Kreischi trampoline, as well as a childcare service and ski kindergarten. In the adjacent "Dino-Park" the kids can go hunting for dinosaurs in a pine wood. The "Yabba-Dabba-Doo-Land" at the Sunshine lifts is themed with the famous stone age family Flintstones, and on the "KreiSchi Safari", the little visitors can look forward to seeing elefant, lion, giraffe & Co.

The "Snowpark Kreischberg" is a sportive highlight and famous hotspot for freestylers. At an altitude of 1,900 m and close to the Sunshine lifts you will find the large freestyle area which comprises a medium difficulty and beginner line. Apart from the impressive setup there is also a half pipe, which was originally built at the beginning of the freestyle scene at the Kreischberg and integrated into the snow park.

Further 25 km of pistes are located in the nearby Lachtal. With its well-prepared pistes and 10 km of ski routes, as well as several off-piste runs it is an eldorado for freeriders. Advanced riders will find several natural jumps and the little ones can go wild in the "Kinder-Lachtal". The ski area at the Hohen Zinken (2,222 m) features a magic carpet, teddy tow lift, mini slalom run, colourful figurine course, mogul piste, as well as a treasure hunt and is perfectly suited for children.
