Niederau in Winter

The ancient ski village of Niederau is located in the beautiful area of Wildschönau. In winter, this area now ranks among the top 10 best ski resorts in Tyrol. Since 2012, Wildschönau has been connected to the ski area of Alpbachtal through one of the most modern gondola lifts in the world. This results in a superb ski area with 110 km of ski slopes, making it suitable for skiers and snowboarders of all levels. The area is enjoyable for both families with young children and professionals who seek black runs, moguls, and deep powder descents. Sporty cross-country skiers and mountain hikers also find delight in the extensive and beautiful natural landscape of Wildschönau.

Niederau in Summer

Niederau is also a real attraction in the summer. The virtually unspoiled natural area of Wildschönau is one of the oldest ski areas in Tyrol but also makes for a stunning vacation spot in the mountains during the summer. With the Wildschönau Card, you can use the lifts for free in the summer. Wildschönau offers 300 km of hiking trails, truly making it a hiker’s paradise.
