Best summer lifts
The Natrun cable car in Maria Alm and the Karbachalm cable car in Mühlbach are among the "Best Austrian Summer Lifts". The quality seal of approval "Best Austrian Summer Lifts" stands for the quality of the offerings on the mountain. For this certification, each lift must fulfill an extensive list of criteria.
Natrun lift - Maria Alm
The Natrun cable car is located in the centre of Maria Alm and takes you directly up to the Prince Mountain Natrun. Once you have arrived at the mountain, you can expect hiking trails suitable for prams, places to relax and, of course, many adventures for young and old. Climb around among the trees at heights of up to 14 metres, recharge your batteries at the Prince lake, become a child again yourself at the castle playground or observe native animal species at the Jufenalm. There are several ways to get back to the valley: a gondola ride with the Natrun cable car, down the slides of our forest slide park or by bike on the flow trail.
