Winter sports holiday in family-friendly Hochkönig
Dienten and the winter sports resorts of Maria Alm and Mühlbach am Hochkönig together form the popular, snow-sure and family-friendly Hochkönig skiing area (which in turn is part of the larger Ski Amadé region). Hochkönig has been called one of the loveliest areas in the Alps and has 150 km of excellently prepared slopes and 34 lifts, all in a beautiful natural setting. Hochkönig also boasts the 'Beginners Welcome’ label, a quality label awarded to resorts that go above and beyond the call of duty in accommodating beginners and families. In 2008 Hochkönig was named a Top Family Ski Resort by the ADAC and, in 2009, by Skigebiete-test.de! A variety of activities are also organised here outside of the slopes, from special horse-sleigh rides to geocoaching for kids in Mulbach and Dienten.
