Luxury Chalets in Wald im Pinzgau

A quiet village at the foot of the Gerlos Pass, with the Zillertal Arena above and Hohe Tauern National Park all around.

Why Wald im Pinzgau

Wald sits at the western end of the Pinzgau, at the foot of the Gerlos Pass and on the border with Tyrol. It has kept its village character: farms, meadows and forest rather than hotel blocks. It suits families and groups who want space and quiet, with big skiing a short drive up the road.

Skiing in the Zillertal Arena

From Wald you reach the Zillertal Arena via Königsleiten. The area links Zell am Ziller, Gerlos, Königsleiten and Hochkrimml, with about 147 km of slopes and 52 lifts across Tyrol and Salzburg. Cross-country skiers join the Pinzgauer Loipe, one of Austria’s longest valley trail networks, directly from the village.

Summer in Wald

Wald lies inside Hohe Tauern National Park, with more than 200 km of marked trails. The Krimml Waterfalls, the highest in Austria, are a few minutes away, and the Gerlos Alpine Road climbs past them into the Zillertal. Summer stays run from two nights, with any arrival day.

Getting there

Salzburg and Innsbruck airports are each roughly 2 hours by car, depending on the route and the season. The Pinzgaubahn railway runs along the valley to Krimml. We arrange private transfers timed to your flights.
