In the centre, you’ll find several shops, restaurants and bars and there is a covered ice rink and a swimming pool.

This lovely project with 21 luxury, detached chalets is being built next to the attractive village centre and the gondola to the Bergeralm ski arena. All the chalets have a large glass façade and a beautiful view of the impressive mountain panorama and the Bergeralm ski region. Two types of chalet are being built to accommodate 8 or 10 people. With exceptional architecture, they have four bedrooms, two or three bathrooms, and an in-house spa.

The combination of a modern-built, luxury chalet in a prime location, with broad possibilities for private use and excellent returns, make investing in the Bergeralm Chalets very interesting for the private investor.

The chalets

The comfortable south-facing chalets, with a luxurious and comfortable interior, are unique to Tirol

The spacious chalets are designed to fit perfectly into the natural surroundings.  The entirely glass façade not only provides plenty of light but also guarantees a panoramic view of the ski slopes and the imposing mountain massive of “Hoher Dachstein”.

Next to the centre and at the foot of the ski slopes and the gondola valley station, we’re building our newest project, Bergeralm Chalets. Entirely according to Austrian tradition, these 21 chalets are being built with first-class materials, are energy efficient and, thanks to the original design, have an authentic look and feel. These comfortable south-facing chalets, with a luxurious and comfortable interior, are unique to Tirol. Through the attractive glass façade, you have a beautiful view of the surrounding mountains and ski slopes.

Two types of chalets are being built. Every house has four of five bedrooms, two or three bathrooms and an in-house spa as standard. The beautiful use of wood and glass gives the chalets a soothing ambiance. This means perfect luxury combined with conviviality and comfort. You select your plot and then the type of chalet you want to build on it. Every chalet has at least one parking space. This can be on your property or in the public area.

Child-friendly winter sport

The gondola takes you from the village directly to the Ski Arena Bergeralm

The gondola takes you from the village directly to the Ski Arena Bergeralm. Here awaits nearly 30 kilometres of pistes. 7 modern ski lifts bring you quickly and comfortably onto the 9 km blue, 10 km red and 8 km black runs. There’s no shortage of artificial snow cannons here too. So, even in mild winters, you can enjoy all the slopes. Three times a week, it’s also possible to ski in the evenings. Cross-country skiers will find challenging routes in both the valley and on the mountains and a 5 km-long winter toboggan run ensures adventure.

Several beautifully located piste restaurants serve typical Tyrolean dishes at reasonable prices. The Italian influence is certainly evident in the cuisine. How could it be otherwise with Italy on your doorstep.

Ski Kinderland Bergeralm is directly next to the Hoher Turm Bergeralm chair lifts. Here, the children learn to ski and snowboard in a fun way under expert supervision. A special conveyor belt delivers the little skiers to the top with ease and the ski carousel is a popular attraction. While you are busy taking in the panoramic pistes, the children are enjoying themselves to the full.

“Good things come in small packages, and this ski area is certainly a case in point,” said the well-known Dutch winter sport journalist Bert Romani.“

“You have everything you need here for a successful family holiday and the authentic atmosphere of Tyrol remains intact.” 

There are several smaller ski areas in the vicinity of Bergeralm. The famous Axamer Lizum is a 35-kilometre drive from Steinach.

Skiing on the Stubai Glacier
Austria’s largest glacier skiing area – only 40 minutes away from Bergeralm Chalets – offers 34 slopes from easy to challenging. Snow is guaranteed from October to June. In addition to the glaciers and natural snow, modern snow-making facilities in the glacier foreland provide for top snow conditions. The winter sports area is situated between the elevations of 1,697 and 3,333 m and offers 60 km of excellent slopes. New 2016/17: a modern 3S cable car including a new valley station and a new downhill run to the new valley station.

Summer in Bergeralm

A winter stay in the Wipptal is magical, of course, but don’t forget the summer

A winter stay in the Wipptal is magical, of course, but don’t forget the summer. A summer holiday in the Austrian mountains, in the heart of Tyrol, is a real experience for young and old. Surrounded by an impressive mountain world and expansive hiking trails and mountain bike routes on your doorstep. Various parts of the Wipptal’s side valleys are protected nature reserves and you can enjoy the flora and fauna at your leisure.

You can enjoy a holiday in Steinach am Brenner in all seasons: experience the beautiful colours in autumn, the white splendour in winter, the last spring snow of the Bergeralm and the summer with its flowering meadows.

Thanks to its location, close to the Brenner Pass, Steinach is also the perfect base for Italy. Sunny Lake Garda and the Venetian Mediterranean coast are only 2–3 hours away.

Innsbruck
If you fancy a day off from walking or skiing, then the Tyrolean capital is absolutely worth a visit. In less than half an hour by car or train you can be in Innsbruck’s old town. Here, world-renowned historical symbols stand side by side with modern and international architecture, encircled by impressive mountains. The great thing about this city is that there is literally something for everyone, with the theatre, the Hofburg, shops like Kaufhaus Tirol, the playground in the Hofpark, and, of course the Alpine Zoo.

The city is also very popular with holidaymakers, as can be seen from a visit to, for example, the historic centre, with its great souvenir shops, narrow passages, lively terraces and many tourists. Often equipped with a camera and sometimes being led by a guide. The centre is an attractive and friendly place, a cultural melting pot and definitely worth a visit.
