Haus im Ennstal is a picturesque market town in the Enns Valley, part of the Schladming-Dachstein region. Its historic center features colorful 16th-century houses, a Gothic parish church, and a lively main square with cafes and shops. The town is a gateway to the Hauser Kaibling mountain, a major ski area with over 70 kilometers of slopes, including the famous 'Hauser Kaibling' World Cup downhill run. In summer, the mountain offers hiking trails, a via ferrata, and a mountain cart track. What sets Haus im Ennstal apart is its blend of cultural heritage and outdoor adventure: you can explore the old town's arcaded courtyards in the morning and be skiing or hiking by afternoon. The town also hosts traditional events like the 'Hauser Advent' Christmas market. Its location on the Enns River adds to its charm, with riverside paths perfect for a leisurely stroll.
