There are a number of umbrella bars and hotel terraces dotted around Zauchensee but the action tends to die down into the evening.

ZAUCHENSEE SKI HOLIDAYS

Zauchensee is the higher resort in the combined Altenmarkt - Zauchensee ski area. Zauchensee is a purpose built ski-in, ski-out ski holiday resort and is an integral part of the combined Ski Amade ski region. Although one of the few purpose built ski holiday resorts in Austria, Zauchensee is attractive and low rise. Zauchensee is essentially ski-in, ski-out and offers the biggest ski area, the best lift system and the more challenging ski terrain of the combined Altenmarkt - Zauchensee ski area. From the Zauchensee ski area, skiers and boarders can continue into the Ski Amade area, into the ski areas of Flachauwinkel, Wagrain, Alpendorf and St Johann.

Great resort for the enthusiast! Great variety of pistes, and linked to Flauwinkel and Kleinarl. Perfect for families, whether it's boarding or ski-ing, there's something at every level, and for every age. Maybe not ideal for beginners, as the standard of ski-ing in the resort is very high, and the runs down to the valley mostly red or black (and brilliant!).

Just be aware that this resorts is unashamedly aimed at the skier/boarder. There is some off-piste activity, but not a lot. Go there if you want to ski/ board, but if you're inclined to finish early or look for other things to do, maybe not there ideal resort for you! Very much a place for the 'first lift up, and last lift down' brigade!

Great resort for family holidays. If you have boarders in the family, don't expect to see too much of them once they discover the snow park in Flachau ...

Again, while there is some apres-ski, the emphasis in Zauchensee is very much on the 'during-ski'!
