Beginners: Filzmoos is exceptionally beginner-friendly, boasting two dedicated learning areas near the village center that provide a stress-free start on wide, uncrowded nursery slopes. Located at the base of the Grossberg chairlift and in Rettenegg, these zones allow newcomers to safely develop their skiing skills, with the support of one of the three local ski schools.
Intermediates: Filzmoos offers intermediates a wealth of terrain, especially around the Grossberg and Mooslehen chairlifts. These lifts grant access to a diverse network of blue and red runs leading to Neuberg in the neighboring valley, where skiers can experience beautiful descents back to the village, enjoying the excellent conditions and varied landscape.
Advanced: Advanced skiers looking for a challenge will find the Papageno gondola ideal, as it ascends to the Moosalm slopes featuring the challenging Hochleiten black run. Additionally, the extensive Ski Amadé region, accessible with the same lift pass, provides an array of off-piste opportunities and demanding pistes, including the 8km Olympic Run from Altenmarkt to Radstadt.
Snowboarding: Though Filzmoos lacks dedicated snowparks, the nearby Amadé ski area includes 14 snowparks and several freestyling zones. The Dachstein glacier, also part of the Ski Amadé pass and easily accessible by bus, offers glacier skiing and a comprehensive snowpark, featuring an assortment of obstacles, ramps, and rails.

I usually book flights, transfers, hotel, ski rental and lift passes myself but this year used WeSki for a trip to Morzine. It was so much easier. Everything worked perfectly - transfers arrived on time and there was plenty of feedback throughout the whole process giving you confidence the holiday would go smoothly.
A really useful service that is so much easier to use than other ‘all-inclusive’ sites. It nicely bridges the gap between a travel agent and booking the trip yourself online. I will use WeSki every time I go skiing from now on.
We booked a late minute skiing trip to Morzine through we ski. We looked at booking the trip ourselves but could get anywhere near the price quoted by we ski. The company was excellent and we had no problems at all from start to finish. I would definitely use them to book another weekend skiing trip.
Seamless experience from start to finish. I was spending ages trying to sort out a weekend break and managed to do it with we ski in minutes and for the same price as booking it all up yourself. Flight, transfer and accommodation was all as expected and faultless.
