Description:
In order to sustainably improve the infrastructure on the mountain and prepare it for future requirements, Hinterstoder-Wurzeralm Bergbahnen AG is launching an important construction project in summer 2025: the first construction phase for snowmaking on the Frauenkarpisten slopes.
Here is all the information about the schedule, affected areas in the hiking area, technical details and contacts.
Construction period:
🗓️ From the beginning of July to the end of October 2025
⚠️ Important notice:
The Frauenkarlift will only be in operation on Saturdays and Sundays in July 2025.
Site plan Wurzeralm
Tip: For an undisturbed mountain experience, we recommend starting the themed circular trail "2 million years in 2 hours" in an anti-clockwise direction. This way, you can avoid the construction site traffic and reach the Brunnsteinersee lake and the continuing hiking trails in a relaxed manner.
GEMSTONE RUSH ON THE WURZERALM
The gold panning facility at the Wurzeralm mountain station is a highlight for big and small children! Under the motto "Who siebet der fíndet!" the kids are on the search for the biggest gemstone. Bags of gemstone sand are available in the mountain restaurant. In each sand are hidden up to 70g of different gems - so excitement is ensured during the search!
Private: From Windischgarsten on the B138 in the direction of Liezen (Styria) before the Pyhrn Pass, on the right-hand side, or via the A9 Pyhrn autobahn to the Spital am Pyhrn exit - B138 in the direction of Liezen
Public: By bus - line 911 or 436 to the Wurzeralm cable car valley station stop.
