Bad Gastein is a true jewel in the Salzburg holiday area for discerning guests, situated at an altitude of 1000 meters. It is an atmospheric town with wonderful buildings from the "Belle Époque" living in total harmony with beautiful natural surroundings.
Bad Gastein gives tourists more snow sure than most low-altitude Austrian resorts, with the high Sportgastein area as back-up. Its slopes are impressively extensive, and mainly quite challenging - great for intermediates who are happy on real red runs. It has more sophisticated apres
ski than many other resorts and the world renowned skiing includes many delightful wooded trails. Bad Gastein is one of the first places to offer the Power Pass, an electronic ski credit which is charged with a certain value, automatically debited each time a lift is used and covers wide range of nearby resorts.
Here you will certainly find a single holiday resort with a sensational selection of events and opportunities for a total relaxation. Sport and leisure are complemented by spa and wellness activities with the resort's world-famous thermal springs and mineral vapour galleries. To reach the most of the valley attractions you will need a car. With five spread-out mountains, two of which are only linked, the valley needs a first class public transport system.
Lots of good, atmospheric and traditional mountain restaurants are also an undeniable advantage of this resort. Those who enjoy nightlife can be sure that with a varied program of events Bad Gastein always makes sure its visitors are well-entertained.
When it comes to accommodation: the visitor comes first. Staying above the centre near the lifts offers a more normal winter sports experience, and both Bad Hofgastein and Dorfgastein, respectively a few km and a few more km down the valley, are equally well worth considering as a base. Whether in simple rooms, in private houses or in a top-class hotel, in Bad Gastein tourists are pampered in every possible way.
