Summer in the Hochkönig

There is so much to see and do in the area once the snow leaves us!  Summer at Haus Schneeberg is a chance to relax amidst breathtaking beautiful scenery. The summer daytime temperatures are very pleasant, generally in the range 22-30 degrees and at night it cools down for a very comfortable night’s sleep.

​There are plenty of activities to enjoy in the area from beautiful walks and hikes across pristine alpine meadows to exhilarating mountain and road biking or excellent golf with 15 courses within a 45 minute drive. There are 4 clay tennis courts in the village and the area is renowned for its classic alpine climbing routes. There is an open air swimming pool in the village and the Karbachalm gondola and other main lifts operate from end May through till mid October, allowing access to excellent walking and biking trails and culinary delights at the mountain restaurants. The hiking bus stops 100m from the house.

​The area is known for it’s petting zoos – many of the local farms open their doors to the public to see their animals.  You can see horses, pigs, goats and many other animals.

We now offer the Hochkönig Card which gives you free use of the hiking bus, free use of the mountain lifts in Summer, free access to the swimming pool, plus lots of other benefits.
