Ski holidays Turrach – ideal destination for families!

Turrach

In the past, life in Turrach was largely dominated by wood and iron. Iron mining and forestry were the most important economic factors in this tranquil village at the foot of the Turracher Höhe. Today, the village, located at 1,269 metres above sea level, has developed into a popular winter sports centre. The high plateau above the village is not only a paradise for skiers and snowboarders, but also for cross-country skiers and hikers. They all enjoy the unique natural scenery and the view of the Karawanken, the Julian Alps and the Nockberge mountains. The picturesque Turracher See lake lies at the centre of the high plateau. With its wide range of leisure activities and clearly laid-out ski area, Turrach is also a perfect destination for families with children.
