Set amidst magnificent scenery at the foot of the Bischofsmütze mountain and Dachstein glacier, Filzmoos attracts guests who are looking for a typical Austrian village with many facilities close at hand. Gentle nursery slopes, conveniently in the village centre, are ideal for beginners and the central ‘Papageno’ six-person gondola gives access to marvellous descents directly down to the village. Wherever you ski, the slopes are usually uncrowded with virtually no lift queues. Après ski is excellent at one of Filzmoos’ characteristic bars or cafes such as the lively ‘Happy Filzmoos’ or the cosy ‘Kenn-i-di’ bar run by our friends at the Hotel Hammerhof. Or perhaps join a sleigh ride through the forests to the romantic Unterhofalm with local folk music, an ideal end to the day.
