Stay safe on the slopes
Delightful and unforgettable – that’s what we want your days in the Sun Ski World to be. To ensure this, we have a few important tips for you. Because as beautiful as the Carinthian mountains and the snow may be – you have to treat them with respect and care.

Safety tips for your day in the mountains
- Protect your head: Whether you go carving or boarding – a ski helmet can save your life!
- Ride with respect: Responsible skiing is the most important prerequisite for great days on the slope.
- Take care in the backcountry: If you venture beyond the groomed slopes, you do so at your own risk.
- Take your time at the chairlift: Don’t lift the safety bar before the chairlift has entered the mountain station
- Daily slope checks: After hours, all marked/groomed slopes of the Sun Ski World are inspected by qualified staff.
- Good night, skiing fun: Between 17:00 and 08:00, all slopes of the Sun Ski World are closed (except for night skiing at Nassfeld ski resort). During this time, it is strictly prohibited to access or enter the slopes.
