The white mountain peaks make for a fascinating contrast to the multi-coloured awakening of nature – all that awaits you on your spring holiday in East Tyrol.

Skiing and snowboarding in the Golzentipp skiing area
The small but beautiful Golzentipp skiing area, of which the bottom station is located only a few steps uphill from the Hotel Weiler, guarantees great skiing fun for everyone. Its slopes are family- and child-friendly, covering different levels of difficulty for both beginners and advanced skiers. It offers a comfortable skiing experience without long waiting times at the ski lifts away from the crowded tourist places. Despite the fact that the Golzentipp skiing area is the sunniest in Austria, perfectly prepared slopes can be enjoyed much longer into spring than elsewhere due to the high altitude of the area.
Ski School Obertilliach – Alpine
The well-trained team of the ski school Obertilliach provides our guests, young or old, with the necessary expertise concerning the safe learning of how to ski or snowboard. Every Thursday there's a ski race for the pupils of the school as well as any other guest wishing to participate in the competition. The focus of the Tilly kid's camp lies on teaching the little ones how to ski or snowboard in a fun and playful way. Its mascot hero Tilly (a rabbit) accompanies and supports them with their first attempts in the snow and they’ll soon feel like skiing is as easy as child’s play!
