    With excellent skiing for intermediates, Katschberg is part of the Lungau ski area and has access to 131km of downhill skiing (70km of which is in Katschberg itself). That’s 57 individual pistes, served by 32 ski lifts, some of which are above 2,000m with very reliable snow cover. There are only 10km of runs suitable for beginners, so it’s ideal for complete beginners that won’t be travelling too far on their first trip to the snow. There is a small fun park that younger children will love to play around in.
