A wide range of possibilities.
All year round.
Summer, winter,
spring, fall
Nestled in the Ybbstal Alps, far from the crowds, you’ll find Nestelberg. Here, where the imposing Ötscher casts its quiet spell, you’re free to explore nature outside or find calm inside – in every season.
Welcome to a place where what truly matters comes back into view.
Out here, staying active
means being part
of nature – and winter
reveals all its sides.
Where do we begin? Skiing in the small, charming ski areas around Nestelberg. Stepping straight into untouched winter landscapes on snowshoes, right from your doorstep. Ice skating across the picturesque Lake Lunz. Gliding along well-groomed cross-country trails. And for even more variety: sledding, winter hiking, or heading out on a ski tour.
Winter around Nestelberg has something for everyone – everything but boring.
Winter vacation is more
than just winter sports
A winter vacation is a well-earned break – a time for conscious enjoyment. Unwind by the fire with a good book. Enjoy a relaxed evening of music, games, or your favorite show. Just quiet, slow moments. Take a peaceful walk through the snowy landscape. And above all, time to simply do nothing – and enjoy the moment. Sit in the sun with a warm cup of tea. Let go in the hot tub. Watch the snow fall from the window of the panoramic sauna.
This is what winter feels like in Nestelberg.
Fresh mountain air and
untouched nature
At the foot of the impressive Ötscher, right in the heart of the Ybbstal Alps, your hikes start at the front door. Whether you’re heading to alpine huts, green peaks, or rugged cliffs – you’ll find routes for every ability and every season.
Nature, freedom, far-reaching views. And the best part? No crowds. Just hiking, just being.
A summer full of possibilities
Summer in the Ybbstal Alps invites you to enjoy countless activities – from easygoing to adventurous. Explore the landscape on two wheels, whether you’re tackling mountain bike trails or cruising the Ybbstal Cycle Path at your own pace. For a refreshing break, take a dip in Lake Lunz.
If you’re aiming higher, try trail running from peak to peak or test your skills on the via ferratas at Hochkar. Adventure-seekers can feel the adrenaline while rafting in Palfau, while focus and calm come into play with archery. And when the day winds down, gather by the campfire and watch for shooting stars.
Enjoy the moment –
no matter the weather outside
Nestelberg is a place that has a very special charm in any weather and at any time of year. Rain, fog, snowstorm or sunshine – here, every day has something good to offer. Outside, nature calls with adventures: walks in the rain or hikes through drifting fog that makes everything feel magical. Even a stormy walk in the snow has a very special magic.
Inside, things slow down: reading a good book, finding your favorite spot in the house, baking fresh bread together in the farmhouse kitchen – or simply doing nothing at all. And when it’s time for wellness, the panorama sauna and the hot tub in the alpine garden are waiting.
