At times Ramsau is almost too beautiful to be real. Yet, this idyllic natural beauty really does exist. No wonder, then, that nature lovers from around the world have appreciated this alpine village for generations and that droves of artists have captured the area on canvas.

They sought sights such as the turquoise waters of Hintersee, the fairy-tale "Magic Forest", the "Blue Ice" glacier, the thundering Wimbach gorge or the rugged Ramsau Dolomite cliffs. Taubensee with its water lilies, the world-renowned Ramsau parish church or the pilgrimage church of Maria Kunterweg are also motifs one cannot forget.

Hikers, cure-takers and winter sports enthusiasts also find what they want: 190 km (114 miles) of well signed trails and paths, as well as sled runs, cross-country ski trails and the family ski area of Hochschwarzeck. Ice-skating and ice-curling in a perfect setting can be enjoyed on Hintersee.

Visitors can experience the mountain farmers' well preserved traditions and enjoy high mountain pastures.

Ramsau offers its cure-takers modern facilities such as the "mountain cure garden" with its Kneipp cold water pool and its brine inhalation gazebo.

Nature at its best: this is the unmatchable promise that Ramsau in the National Park makes to its visitors and guests!
