Area

Styria is situated in the southern part of Austria and is a rugged woodland area. This region has not yet been discovered by tourists and is therefore more peaceful than other Austrian regions. You can spend wonderful holidays here, combining long mountain walks and other sporting outings with culture and relaxation. In the winter Styria turns into the “white heart of Austria”, with impressionable ski areas and in the summer, it is best known for its many lakes, thermal baths and the impressive Hohe Tauern mountain range.

The resort of Hohentauern is small, has 15 km of well-prepared pistes and is a perfect place for skiers who want to enjoy “winter’s pure nature” with their families. Being advantageously situated at heights of between 1,250-1,800 metres, there is guaranteed snow all winter long. As soon as it begins to snow, everything revolves around winter sport. Hohentauern also has a Children’s Paradise with magic carpet (conveyer belt), merry-go-round, fairytale forest etc.

Close by is the Lachtal. More mountain, more ski! High up, at 2200 m, the snow is glittering, while you are enjoying the beautiful panorama of the Styrian mountain world, deep blue the sky above you. The second largest Styrian ski resort attracts visitors with the most beautiful slopes. A total of 140 hectares of slopes at an altitude of 1.600 to 2.222 m invites all skiers, carvers and boarders. The slopes are varied – something for everybody – with a total length of 33 km.

Hohentauern probably has even more activities to offer in the summer than in the winter. Nearby there is an indoor swimming pool and an 18 hole golfcourse in Weissenbach. You can enjoy horse riding, fishing, cycling and mountain biking.

Rental & management

Austria has strict laws for the acquiring of real estate by foreigners. As a European resident you are able to purchase a property in Chalets Hohentauern without a special licence. Regarding the renting or not renting out or the property or using it as a second home, the legislation of Hohentauerns development plan applies.

You are free to spend all your time in your residence, rent it out yourself or hand the responsibility over to a specialist.

If you decide to let through the rental platform, you can decide to hand over entire responsibility or choose a combination where you can also rent your chalet out yourself. You, of course, decide when you want to use your own chalet or the period when you don’t want to let it. With professional rental you can make an attractive income of between 4-7% per year.
