Into the sky with the snow kite – winter holidays in Obertauern
Take off – with your snow kite in the skiing region Obertauern.
Snow kiting at Obertauern
Snow kiting is snowboarding or skiing with a kite. Maybe you have heard of kite surfing before? Snow kiting is winter sports equivalent. Wind, snow and you – all you have to do is take off.
Obertauern has always been the leading winter sports destination in Austria when it comes to the latest winter sports trends. Snow kiting is a prime example of this – in Obertauern the snow kite world championship took place here in 2005.
Imagine you are holding on to a kite and you are standing on skis or your snowboard. And then the wind blows you up into the steepest heights: that‘s pure adrenaline infused sports fun! Of course there is a snow-kiting school in Obertauern, where all the necessary equipment can be rented and where you find professional support. Afterwards Lürzer Holidays recommends the high plateau Obertauern directly next to the Lürzer Alm ski hut, where ideal conditions for snow kiting can be found. During snow kiting, real pros can reach heights of up to 20metres, up and down it goes, depending on what your kite and wind allow you to do. But don’t worry, it’s a sport where even beginners can get off the ground quickly – quite literally. However if you don’t like heights, then it might not be right for you.
