Skiing in the Graukogel ski area

Unforgettable challenges amidst a majestic winter landscape: At the Graukogel ski area, natural snow dominates the winter sports experience on 14 kilometers of ski runs. Devoid of artificial snow, the Graukogel is a beloved destination for ski tourers and experienced skiers. The exhilarating steep slopes, weaving through the enchanting stone pine forest, make for a wind-shielded and wonderful skiing experience.

Event highlight: For skiing enthusiasts who want to conquer the mountain from its base, Bad Gastein offers evening piste ski tours twice a week.

Feasting in the mountain huts on Graukogel

Where there’s sports, there’s usually also plenty of appetite and thirst. Despite the ski area’s modest size, the culinary offerings on Graukogel are a grand delight. At the Graukogelbahn mountain station, guests can kick back at the charming Graukogelhütte, perched at 1,958 meters above sea level. A little lower, at the middle station, the Graukogelalm invites you to savor a delectable meal. The menus feature regional and homemade delicacies from the Skigastein area. And if this doesn’t have you daydreaming already ...

Graukogel & the magic of the stone pine forest

Once you arrive on Graukogel, the extraordinary “magic” of this mountain quickly becomes apparent. A picturesque Swiss stone pine forest unfolds right in front of you at the Graukogelbahn mountain station. The ancient stone pine trees infuse the area with a tranquil ambience, creating a unique sanctuary of serenity – far away from the traditional hustle and bustle of the slopes. The forest on Graukogel offers an ideal opportunity for a sporty retreat. Weekly stone pine snowshoe tours, along with the two well-loved ski touring routes, Graukogel and Zirbenroas Graukogel, invite you to revel in this natural treasure to the fullest.
