Non-Ski Activities
There is plenty to see and do in Bad Gastein. After a day on the mountain, why not try the thermal baths in the centre of the village, with outdoor heated pools for you to soak your aching muscles in and enjoy the views of the magnificent snow-capped peaks around you.
If you're looking for a more unique spa experience, you can head to the Radhausberg, which is an old gold mine where you take a mining train into the mountain and enjoy the geothermal high temperatures and naturally occurring radon therapy, which Gastein is famous for.
For those who like walking and hiking, there are hundreds of kilometres of signposted hiking trails in the Gastein valley, which are of varying difficulty and lead you through the trees and up to the mountain huts on the pistes.
Or why not try a romantic horse-drawn sleigh ride through the forests and see the mountains from a different perspective?
Alternatively you can take the direct train from the station in the village down to Salzburg and visit the birthplace of Mozart with its medieval castle. Take a day to explore the city, then get back to our chalet-hotel in Bad Gastein in time for the evening meal.
