Toboggan runs
There are excellent conditions for tobogganing fans on the Mariazeller Bürgeralpe. From the mountain station, the 1700 m long toboggan run leads directly to Mariazell and ends at the valley station of the cable car. In Annaberg, night-time adventurers gather for particularly fun runs and test their visibility under floodlights.

Horse sleigh ride
Wrapped up in blankets, it’s not just a highlight for couples and families. Sleigh and carriage rides are particularly memorable on a skiing vacation in the Mostviertel.
