... perfect Ski amadé enjoyment in winter. The Königstour starts at the lifestyle hotel in the Hochkönig region and connects the three towns of Maria Alm, Dienten and Mühlbach. The most beautiful ski circuit in the Alps in winter and one of the most impressive mountain panoramas in Austria in summer, of course not just during the holidays.

Growing with the village for generations, the Eder is much more than just a hotel on the village square. It is a place where cordiality is still very important and humor is never neglected. Warm, genuine and lively - just as it simply has to be in the middle of it all. Experience a holiday in the village, right in the middle between the colorful village life of Maria Alm and the breathtaking natural backdrop of the Hochkönig.

Enter DAS EDELWEISS and immediately feel the cosiness that is literally in the air. In the Alpine Lounge, the spaciousness of the luxury resort in Salzburger Land and its familiar warmth can already be sensed. The rooms and suites immediately make you feel at home – earthy colours and natural materials such as stone, glass and wood create a unique atmosphere. The highlight is the NEW south wing with spacious family suites and the NEW Family Spa.

The award-winning EDELWEISS Mountain Cuisine indulges you in various rooms and focuses on the use of local ingredients. The market square, the fine dining restaurant and the new Sirloin steak restaurant promise further culinary highlights. Wine connoisseurs get their money's worth in the Kork & Gloria wine bar. In winter, the Talstadtion gondola and the ski slope are right next door. The high-end ski depot, our own ski rental and shop round off the perfect winter holiday.
