The Schneebären Card stands for 5 ski areas and 128 kilometres of slopes: Tauplitz, Kaiserau, Planneralm, Loser and Riesneralm. The "Tauplitz" is the largest area of this union (Schneebärenland), with 43 km of piste and 20 lift systems. It is known as one of the most traditional ski areas in Austria and thanks to the geological location, the area benefits from mostly ideal snow conditions. Modern snow-making systems ensure that fun in the snow is guaranteed for as long as possible. However, not only on the pistes here are the perfect place to be for winter sports fans. The area is also very popular with ski tour fans, and also freeriders can find suitable terrain here. It is not for nothing that this place is also known to be one of the best freeride areas in Styria, offering numerous obvious, but also some hidden lines of vyring lengths. In the Ski-Kinderland, the little ones can burn off steam and change their skis to comfortable rubber tyres in the ski-tubing area.
