Tobogganing fun
Hochwurzen is home to the longest toboggan run in Styria. From the starting portal at 1,852 metres above sea level, young and old alike can enjoy the lively seven-kilometre-long route down the mountain with a bit of speed. The winding route means that there is plenty of fun to be had and also ensures plenty of variety. You can either bring your own toboggans or hire them directly on site. The comfortable Hochwurzen summit lift takes the tobogganers up to the top station, where the tobogganing fun for young and old can then start. The track is prepared daily and tickets are available at the Gipfelbahn Hochwurzen lift ticket office.
Ski touring
The Hochwurzen is also particularly popular with ski tourers. Whether for beginners or keen and experienced ski tourers – the Hochwurzen is the ideal starting point for a leisurely ski tour. The ascent track starts at the Hochwurzen bottom station at the starting portal and leads up to the top station at 1,852 metres. The track is groomed daily and a fee must be paid for the existing infrastructure, such as the parking, guiding system, etc.
Funslope
The Funslope on the Hochwurzen (between the Hochwurzen Gipfelbahn lift and the Obertalbahn bottom station) provides fun off the slopes.
Whether steep curves, waves or the snow tunnel – over a length of 575 metres, fun obstacles provide plenty of adventure.
A special highlight is the Speed boost: a six-metre-long box that makes noises when you cross over it. The Funslope mascot Slopy is already looking forward to seeing you!
Hopsi slope
The Hopsi slope is located in the area of the Obertalbahn lift top station and is just right for speedy little skiers and beginners.
Along the slope you will see signs with the mascot "Hopsi" on them to show you the right way.
Several wave runs on the edge of the slope ensure a lot of fun and at the end you can also branch off onto the funslope.
4-Seasons Trail
The winter hiking trail on the Hochwurzen is an experience for the whole family. The Hochwurzen summit cable car takes you comfortably up to the top station, where the approx. 2-hour hike begins.
Enjoy the beautiful panorama and walk through the snow-covered winter landscape!
Tip: In the Schladming-Dachstein Region there is a special winter hiking ticket for those who want to go up the mountain without skis.
