Christmas in the mountains, Christmas in the snow, a childhood dream comes true! As in the old days, we cut down the Christmas tree in our own forest and then warm ourselves with freshly roasted chestnuts and mulled punch by the crackling farm stove in the hut. Far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, you decorate the tree in the old parlor while the children frolic outside in the snow or let off steam on the ski slope. When dusk falls over the forest and hunting lodge, then it is here: Holy Night.

Romantic Christmas days in an old mountain house in the Hohe Tauern National Park at 1,300 m above sea level, walks in the crunchy snow, feeling the magic of the Christmas season, cozy celebrations in the old farmhouse parlor - this dream comes true with our offer "Mountain Christmas in the Almchalet Goldbergleiten".

Alpine skiing on absolutely snow-sure natural snow slopes, high alpine in front of the Grossglockner at over 2,000 m above sea level, ski tours in the Goldberg massif, snowshoe hikes with the national park rangers, a romantic horse-drawn sleigh ride, enjoying the healthy mountain air, peace and quiet far away from the hustle and bustle of the cities - that's what a winter holiday with us in the mountains is all about!
