Hear the snow crunch under your skis

Ideal for first-time ski tourers

The Heidi Alm Falkert is an excellent base for ski touring adventures across the Carinthian Nockberge mountains - especially for those new to this wonderful sport.

Rising up to 2,400 m above sea level, the Nockberge mountains provide ski touring and snowshoeing enthusiasts with fabulous terrain thanks to its gentle gradients. Snow-covered summits such as Falkert-Spitz, Rodresnock, Klomnock and Malnock are just waiting to be conquered.

Magnificent views are the reward for the ascent before skiing down either through the Sonntagstal valley or into the World Cup ski area of Sankt Oswald / Bad Kleinkirchheim.

Staying safe in the mountains
