Services included in the ski pass

Salzburg. Unlike in the free skiing area, the
mountain railways pay an annual ground rent to the owners for the use of the slope areas.
- On-call service for ski patrol
In Snow Space Salzburg, a ski patrol team with an emergency paramedic is on standby on all three mountains during
ski slope opening hours.
- Infrastructure on the mountain
The toilet facilities at the cable car stations
are available to all winter sports enthusiasts.
- Use of parking areas
The mountain railways provide sufficient parking spaces at the valley stationsand ensure that snow is cleared daily.
- Ski bus network in the surrounding towns
The ski touring ticket entitles you to use the extensive ski bus network in the region. Tip: The ascent route in Alpendorf/St. Johann is particularly easy to reach by public transport.
5 PEAKS Touring Trophy
Do you love climbing under your own steam? Then the new 5 PEAKS Touring Trophy is just the right challenge for you! You can show what you're made of on our five marked ski touring ascent routes in Alpendorf, Wagrain, Eben, Radstadt and Altenmarkt.
Right at the start, your start time is recorded when you pass through the access reader, and then it's time to start collecting altitude metres! The goal is to reach the photo point on the mountain, where you take your summit photo to record your arrival.
If you are part of the MYPEAKS community, you will automatically take part in the 5 PEAKS Touring Trophy with every successful ascent. At the end of the season, great prizes await the most diligent altitude gain collectors – provided by our official touring partner Atomic.
Verticalmeter-Challenge
CLIMBER – WHO HAS THE GREATEST ENDURANCE? The person who accumulates the most altitude metres on all five tour routes throughout the season wins the trophy.
