Obertauern Piste Map

The terrain at Obertauern is compact, high-altitude and easy to navigate. The ski area wraps around the village, so visitors can ski several sectors without long transfers. The Tauernrunde is the key route, linking the main areas in both directions.

Beginners and families should start on the gentler blue pistes and learning areas close to the village. Ski schools, rental shops and places to pause are nearby, which makes the day easier to manage with children or cautious skiers.

Intermediates get the strongest choice. Obertauern’s many red pistes are well suited to carving, longer linked descents and full ski days without repeating the same piste too often.

Advanced skiers can look for steeper red and black sections. The vertical drop is 683 m, but the open high-alpine setting gives the skiing a more exposed and athletic feel than the number alone suggests.

Freestyle skiers and snowboarders can add variety in the resort’s official park and fun areas. These features are useful for changing the rhythm of the day without leaving the marked ski area.

The landscape is a major part of the experience. Open slopes, wide mountain views and the resort’s position in a high pass give Obertauern a strong alpine character, especially in clear weather.
