Skiing in Alpendorf - Details

The Alpendorf gondola in St. Johann – Alpendorf goes straight to the beginners area in Obergasslalm. When you take the connecting Obergasslalm chairlift you can take the blue piste to the Hirschkogel area which is the main area of Alpendorf with very wide and perfectly groomed blue and red slopes.

While Alpendorf itself does not offer a huge variety of terrain, its strength lies in efficient access to a much larger ski area. Expert skiers may find the immediate area limited, but will appreciate the easy connections to neighbouring sectors.
