Ski vacations Flattach - unlimited fun on the piste for the whole family!

Flattach

Flattach lies at the foot of the Mölltal Glacier on 696 m above sea level right in the middle of the scenic Carinthia Oberland. The Mölltal glacier is Carinthia's only glacier ski region and therefore offers fun on the piste. With guaranteed snow from October until May. In the past agriculture and forestry used to play an important role in Flattach. But by building the Mölltal Express, which takes you to the Mölltal glacier ski region in just 8 minutes, tourism became more important in the contemplative winter sports. Even through this development the cosy village still kept its familiar charm. The townscape is covered by several restaurants, pubs and of course ski cabins. The conservatory of Carinthia that is on the highest altitude is very famous, the Panorama restaurant "Eissee" is located at an altitude of 2, 800 m. The gigantic glass-steel construction sort of enthrones over the ice and reflects the alp world from the Schareck over the Sonnblick all the way to the Dolomites in its glass surface.

Mölltal Glacier

''100% Sun, Snow, and Ski fun!'' The formula for success at the Mölltaler Glacier and the Ankogel is as simple as it is comprehensible. The 3,122 m high Mölltaler Glacier is one of Austria's most snow-secure glacier ski areas. The southern side of the Alps is statistically proven as the sunniest region in Austria. The panorama views of about 30 3,000-meter high mountains of the Hohe Tauern is unique to Austria. Lovingly referred to as ''Mölli'' by fans, Carinthia's only glacier ski area draws skiers in starting in the end of September to power out on the finest powder.

On the Mölltaler Glacier and the nearby Ankogel, you can expect to find 30 km of snow-sure pistes. Ankogel is just as challenging for aces and off-piste artists as well as for pleasure-carvers and boarders, who have long-since discovered the generous and broad pistes. The best thing about "Mölli" and Ankogel has to be that there are no waiting times for the ski lifts and no rushhours on the pistes. In both ski areas you'll experience typical Carinthian friendliness- a heart-warming combination of serenity and hospitality. Action and fun are also guaranteed with possibilities of ice skating or racing down the toboggan run. A real highlight after or instead of the sporting activities is visiting the "Tauern Bad" pool area.
