Introducing Radstadt
Radstadt has an attractively walled town centre, with round turrets and a Stadtpfarrkirche (town parish church) that is a potpourri of Gothic and Romanesque elements. Most people, however, come for the fantastic skiing and snowboarding in the region, which forms part of the huge Salzburger Sportwelt skiing area. Around 100 lifts provide access to 300km of pistes geared mostly towards intermediates and beginners, plus several snowboard parks and high-altitude cross-country trails. For information, contact the Salzburger Sportwelt Tourist Office (06457-29 29; www.sportwel t-amade.com).

The same mountains attract active types in summer, too, with more than 1000km of walking trails and opportunities for canyoning, climbing, white-water rafting and mountain biking.
