When there’s no snow anywhere else—we’ve got it! Guaranteed snow in winter—an oasis of tranquility in summer. You can ski almost right up to the front door, and in summer, you can start hiking right away, as two hiking trails are located in the immediate vicinity of the houses.
Almhaus Louise (4 rooms each, approx. 104 m² of living space, 9 beds, built in 2008) is located directly in the Zillertal Arena ski area on the Gerlosplatte/Plattenkogel at an elevation of 1,700 meters. It is a detached house that is entirely at the guests’ disposal.
We ourselves spend about 3 months a year in the house. That’s why we’ve placed particular emphasis on coziness and comfort. Unlimited internet access (including Wi-Fi) is available free of charge—both wirelessly and via cable.
The lower floor is equipped with underfloor heating, as is the upper bathroom.

Perfect for skiers in winter, as the area has guaranteed snow and is part of the Zillertal-Arena ski region, with a total of 166 kilometers of slopes (10 km black, 114 km red, 42 km blue). The lifts are nearby, and you can ski right up to the house.
The cross-country ski trail runs 20 meters below the house. The ski area is also very appealing to experienced skiers, as it offers many off-piste areas. A snowboard park has been built in Gerlos for snowboarders, and several ski jumps are set up at Gerlosplatte/Duxeralm during the winter.
Here, you can experience winter right on your doorstep.

The houses are located in the heart of the Hohe Tauern National Park, Austria’s largest national park (approx. 900 km²). Several hiking trails pass right by the house. Due to its proximity to the Krimml Waterfalls, the air has a significantly higher concentration of so-called “light” air ions. This is particularly beneficial for people with allergies and asthma.
