Ski holidays Unken - skiing in the Heutal!

Unken

Unken lies at an altitude of approx. 564 and is also known as the "gateway to Pinzgau". The idyllic village is especially interesting for those who like some peace and quiet during their holidays. The Heutal, in which Unken is located, is a snow-sure area and an ideal destination for skiers, cross-country skiers and sun seekers. The cosy ski area offers easy to intermediate pistes and therefore is well-suited for families. History fans will find lots to explore here, e.g. with the fort Kniepass, which was built in the 13th century and gives insights into the tales of Unken and the Salzburger Land. Many activities, such as cross-country skiing, winter hiking or adventurous snow-kiting are sure to kill boredom. Or maybe you just want to relax on a romantic horse-drawn sleigh ride through the impressive winter landscape. Afterwards you can try some of the great regional specialities in one of the cosy huts. No matter what you choose to do, a diverse winter holiday is guaranteed in Unken.

Salzburger Saalach Valley

In front of the breathtaking panorama of the Loferer Steinberge mountains with the highest point of the Ochsenhorn (2,511 m) lie the cosy villages of Lofer and Unken. Nestled in the Saalachtal, the villages became popular winter sports destinations due to the close proximity of the Loferer Alm and Unken-Heutal ski areas. The region offers a magnificent mountain panorama as well as a diverse range of recreational activities with sports or culture. Families with children will especially love not only the gentle pistes, but also the resort's family friendliness. Cross-country trails and the network of winter hiking trails also invite you to savour the panorama.
