The popular "Family Shot" and "Krispenleit'n" pistes belong to skiers during the day, but light up the way up to the Riesneralm and safely back down into the valley for you as a ski tourer on Friday evening. And because it always tastes best after the ascent, the high seat is open for you until 10 p.m. on these special winter evenings.

Safety information

  • With the exception of the touring ski evening, all pistes on the Riesneralm are closed to touring skiers by day and night!
  • Ascent and descent on Friday evening only via the "Familienschuss" and "Krispenleitn" pistes.
  • Use of the pistes outside opening hours is dangerous to life and strictly forbidden.
  • Ascent at your own risk - no liability is accepted for any alpine dangers that may exist or occur, such as avalanches, weather, etc.
  • In winter, caution is advised on even supposedly easy tours. The ground can be slightly icy in shady places, and there is a risk of avalanches on slopes. Mountain sports are therefore - all the more so in winter - subject to personal responsibility. Before every ski tour or snowshoe hike, the current avalanche report should be checked - available at www.lawine.at
