The village of St. Martin am Tennengebirge is located over 1,000 metres above sea level surrounded by unspoiled nature, verdant grasslands and picturesque mountain pastures and is an ideal place to relax.

The Tennengebirge Mountain Range, the Dachstein Massif and the Bishop’s Mitre Mountain all form an impressive framework for the sun bathed plateau of the Lammer Valley. Such a landscape is guaranteed to deliver a feel-good factor.

The hearty mountain cuisine on offer will provide sustenance to young and old alike. The guesthouse also has its own relaxing sauna and a petting zoo with goats, rabbits and chickens for children.

After a strenuous day of activity, there is nothing better than a refreshing night’s sleep surrounded by fresh mountain air and the peace and quiet of the location.

A hiking tour is the best way of exploring the magnificent mountain scenery surrounding St. Martin.

The JUFA St. Martin provides the ideal starting point to visit such sights as the Koreinhöhe, the Ostermaisspitz, the Höllalm, the Schöberlalm or the Österreichweg.

Guided full-moon walks, cave visits and activity programmes organised by the Bergfexen group of mountain enthusiasts from St. Martin are also extremely popular.

After a strenuous hike, the 7,000 m² Lake Park in the centre of St. Martin is an ideal place to seek necessary refreshment and for both young and old to enjoy a swim.

Simply step outside the JUFA St. Martin am Tennengebirge, strap on your skis and descend to the valley station where a bus awaits to provide free travel to the surrounding ski resorts.

The Dachstein West, Gosau – Russbach – Annaberg resort offers winter sports enthusiasts a range of slopes for beginners, intermediate skiers and experts.

The downhill routes on Mount Karkogel near Abtenau are ideal for families and for those who are new to the slopes. There are also lifts which are used by the St. Martin Ski School to coach individual guests and groups who wish to have support in learning to ski. St. Martin is also the highest village in the Lammer Valley.

All of which means that good snow conditions are guaranteed and that nothing can stand in the way of an enjoyable winter holiday.

Plenty of variety is also available in the form of 40 km cross-country skiing routes, cross-country skiing schools, the natural ice rink at the Lake Park, curling rinks and horse-drawn sleigh rides.

Guided night tours with cross-country skis, climbing skins and headlamps are a particularly thrilling way of exploring the romantic winter landscape. The whole family will also enjoy sledging on the Buttermilchalm natural toboggan run or zooming down the Oberscharten toboggan run.
