Rittisberg with combined lift and varied pistes
From the magic carpet to the gondola lift
The Rittisberg offers ski pistes at different levels of difficulty. Families enjoy the wide runs and the Märchen ski trail. Skilled skiers can venture onto steeper terrain. For professionals, there is a dedicated training ski slope.
A key feature is the combined lift with chairs and gondolas. It takes winter sports guests to the summit and offers flexible ascent options. Thanks to the new lift system, cross-country skiing on the Rittisberg is also possible.
In Ramsau am Dachstein, beginners can make progress step by step. Children and beginners start on the magic carpet and the T-bar lift. T-bar lifts make it easier to get started because children can ride them without an adult companion.
This helps young skiers prepare well for the gondola lift on the Rittisberg. The Skischule Ramsau, the largest children's ski school in the region, is located directly at the Rittisberg and accompanies children as they learn in the snow.
Kaliland at the Rittisberg
Kaliland is a large adventure area for snow-loving children. The child-friendly Kalilift takes little piste fans uphill. The lift staff supports children during their first attempts and helps them get on and off the lift safely.
Around the beginner slope, many playful features await: a giant Kali to ride through, a giant slide, a warm stone oven, mushroom houses, tipis and igloos. This makes learning how to brake and turn varied and fun. Adults who are skiing for the first time also find good conditions for their first turns in Kaliland thanks to the gentle gradient.
Ski fun and winter offers for families
Ramsau am Dachstein offers a wide range of winter sports for families. This includes 9 family-friendly ski lifts, children's ski schools, snow-covered pistes, Kaliland and adventure pistes for children. The longest fairy-tale descent at 4 kilometres also creates special skiing moments.
Beyond the classic slopes, a Zipfelbob track, winter welcome festivals and children's snow festivals add to the offer. This keeps the winter day varied, even when skiing is not the only thing on the programme.
Cross-country skiing on the high-altitude trail
With the expansion at the Rittisberg, the cross-country trail network in Ramsau am Dachstein has been extended. The high-altitude trail is accessible via the combined lift and lies at an altitude of 1,600 metres above sea level. As a circular route, it runs over 5.5 kilometres from the mountain station to the summit cross.
The trail is suitable for classic and skating cross-country skiing. An accompanying path for winter hikers and snowshoe hikers runs through snowy forests and offers repeated views of the Dachstein and the Enns Valley. The adventure huts can also be reached via the trail and the winter hiking path.
Winter hiking to the summit cross and adventure huts
At the Rittisberg, a winter hiking trail to the summit cross and to the rustic adventure huts leads through the landscape. The Sonnenalm, Halseralm and Rosteralm welcome guests with regional specialities and warming stove fires.
The trail is ideal for anyone who wants to experience winter at a quieter pace. The accompanying route for winter hikers and snowshoe hikers leads through snowy forests and offers beautiful views of the surrounding mountain world.
Night tobogganing at the Rittisberg
The Rittisberg offers a 3.5-kilometre natural toboggan run that is lit up at night. It is one of the region's attractive toboggan options in the Schladming-Dachstein holiday region and provides an energetic winter experience in the evening.
The combined lift takes toboggan fans up to the 1,500-metre-high Rittisberg from 6:30 p.m.. Evening operations run on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays. The Rittisberg lift operates until 9:30 p.m., and the toboggan run stays lit until 10:00 p.m..
