Sports & Adventure

Where do you find true adventure? Someone once said that the real adventures are in the mind!

We say that: real adventures can be found in Bad Gastein. If you are a thrill seeker, if you are an adrenaline junkie, if you enjoy being out of breath, then you shouldn’t be anywhere else. There are plenty of adventures and sporting challenges just waiting to be conquered by you.

Hot air ballooning
Approximately one hour ride in a hot air balloon. Total time including launch preparations, landing, and transfer with return vehicle 4-5 hours. Travel time to the starting point (Filzmoos) is about one hour.

Depending on the wind direction, the flights take you either along the mighty Dachstein massif or over the regions of Radstadt and Abtenau. Warm clothing with hat, gloves and sturdy shoes absolutely necessary!

Climbing
Beginners and advanced climbers get their money’s worth in Gastein. Easy routes directly in the village or challenging multi-pitch routes in Sportgastein – whatever your heart desires.
With our partner, the Alpine School Angerer, we organize beginner courses for children or for adults, as well as special training days if required, such as the introduction to multi-pitch climbing.

Via ferrata
On the Schlossalm there are now 6 via ferratas in all degrees of difficulty. And when your arms are tired, you can train your sense of balance in the slackline park directly at the Kleine Scharte mountain station.
We also offer introductory courses for via ferrata together with the Alpine School Angerer.

High Ropes Course
The high ropes course in Mölltal offers trial climbing, half-day programs or day programs.
Supervised by specially trained safety instructors.
