For the winter sports fanatic, there are endless possibilities at Salzstiegl – Hirschegg ski resort, given you can ski, snowboard, freeride, go cross-country, climb, hike and toboggan. Located in the District of Voitsberg in Austria, the resort is just 55 minutes away from Graz airport, making it ideal for those wanting to get on the slopes as soon as possible.
