Maria Alm am Steinernen Meer is a charming, traditional alpine village in Austria's Salzburg province. Centered around its iconic pilgrimage church, the village exudes an authentic Austrian atmosphere while offering modern amenities and direct access to one of the country's most spectacular ski areas. It sits at the foot of the dramatic Steinernes Meer plateau and the imposing Hochkönig mountain, providing breathtaking panoramas at every turn. As the western gateway to the Hochkönig ski area, Maria Alm forms part of an expansive 120km network of pistes that stretch across to Dienten and Mühlbach. The skiing here is predominantly characterized by wide, impeccably groomed red and blue runs, making it an absolute paradise for intermediates and families. The local slopes on the Natrun mountain are perfect for beginners, seamlessly blending into the village. Beyond the skiing, Maria Alm is celebrated for its exceptional culinary scene, boasting some of the highest-quality and most architecturally stunning mountain huts in the Alps. Combined with its inclusion in the massive Ski Amadé network, the resort offers an unbeatable mix of traditional village charm, vast skiable terrain, and high-end alpine hospitality.
