Ski amadé from A to Z

Du willst den Berggipfel nicht nur vom Tal aus bewundern, sondern direkt darauf stehen und die Freiheit spüren? Du willst die atemberaubende Bergwelt hautnah erleben? Steige aus der Komfortzone heraus, setz dir ein Ziel und wir begleiten dich sicher und voller Motivation zu deinem Traum.

Wir, die Alpine Guides Gastein, sind staatlich geprüfte Bergführer, Skilehrer und Skiführer, Mountainbikeguides, Mitglieder der Bergrettung und Lawinenkommission Bad Hofgastein.

Nicht nur die intensive Ausbildung, sondern auch die jahrelange Erfahrung im alpinen Gelände und abseits der präparierten Pisten sowie die pure Leidenschaft zu den Bergen, haben unser Wissen in unserem Beruf vertieft und gefestigt.

There are 2 shops of Sport Wielandner:

• one is situated in Alpendorf (only open during winter months)
• one is situated in the city centre of Sankt Johann

Sport Wielandner is a family run specilist shop which offers premium quality products for many sports like skiing, snowboarding, running, tennis etc.

We also offer ski rental (skis, boots, helmets, snowboards etc.)

On a hilltop at Langeck in Maria Alm, a panoramic viewing platform with a striking wooden throne awaits you – complete with a summit cross. Perfect for unforgettable photos with breathtaking views.

Climbing, hiking, mountaineering and guided alpine tours in Gastein. A team of selected and highly qualified guides is happy to welcome you.

In winter we offer ice climbing at the sparkling blue icy-waterfalls in Gastein. The legendary ice-drops like Mordor, Supervisor or the glas palace are to choose from.

With the Valley Guiding we offer guided hiking tours in Gastein Valley, Alpine tours at 3000 meters, climbing tours and via ferratas. A special insider tipp are the "Secret Trails", almost forgotten. The legendary paths and tracks lead deep into the center of the National Park Hohe Tauern. Including ascending the Bocksteinkogel or the Tischlerspitze.

Only a few know the path – especially because it is necessary to use a rope and a safety for the ascent.

Bikerental INTERSPORT Maria Alm - Dorf 8

If the enjoyment and rest and relaxation factor are as high as the mountains in the Hochkönig area then you are at the Hotel Handlerhof in Maria Alm. A wonderful place offering everything that makes a holiday unforgettable.

Lively hospitality and a family atmosphere are only two of the reasons guests at the Hotel Handlerhof return again and again to spend their holidays in this beautiful place. Enjoy a sense of wellbeing at the Handlerhof, relax and enjoy the most beautiful days of the year to the full.

In the Bergheimat at 1,200 metres above sea level, you can experience the feeling of freedom, unique views, surrounded by nature and palpable tranquillity. Regional products from the Austrian gourmet regions and the surrounding area are valued and cooked here. The origin of the food is particularly important to the hosts, as is the personalised service for guests and their passion for good wine. 

‘I have tasted all the wines and know almost every face of the winemaker,’ says Sieglinde. She hikes to the surrounding mountain pastures and visits her favourite places on the Hochkönig, tastes wines on the mountain, picks and gets to know herbs. If there is time, there is of course also a ski day with the guests in between, including a stop for refreshments! ‘Social meals’ and themed evenings await special gourmets and you certainly won't go home without chatting with Sieglinde or Nathalie.
