Bürgeralpe - Mariazell Ski area
With the "Skiberge Mariazellerland" lift pass, you can enjoy a total of 28 kilometres of slopes in the Bürgeralpe and Mitterbach ski areas.
The Bürgeralpe ski area offers 12 kilometres of slopes. Today, the Mariazeller Bürgeralpe, with its aerial tramway, two 4-seater chairlifts and three T-bar lifts, is a modern family ski area with perfectly groomed slopes of all difficulty levels, which has been awarded the Styrian Seal of Quality for slopes. Thanks to the favourable geographical location of the Mariazell region, which is encircled by a mountain range, there is an exceptionally large amount of snow even at relatively low altitudes (868–1,267 m). Modern snow-making technology ensures winter sports can be enjoyed well into spring. For snowboarders, the Bürgeralpe offers a fun park with video recording, whilst children can let off steam in the children’s ski area.

Après ski in Bürgeralpe - Mariazell
Away from the piste, Mariazell is a rather quiet place. Here, it's less about partying and more about culinary delights. The numerous cafés, patisseries and restaurants in the village offer plenty of this with their Mariazell specialities. Sporting fun is not limited to cross-country trails and pistes. Guests can try their hand at skijoring, for example. Never heard of it? This snow sport has its origins in the Scandinavian countries. Athletes on skis are pulled through the snow-covered landscape by a horse and rider while hanging on to a tow rope.
Without horsepower, tobogganists can descend the 1,700-metre-long toboggan run on the Bürgeralpe - even in the evening under floodlights. If you prefer a quieter experience, you can try your luck ice fishing in the Erlaufsee lake nearby in St. Sebastian. The lake also offers the opportunity for ice skating and ice diving.
