About Rauris and the SalzburgerLand Area

Rauris is in the heart of the SalzburgerLand area, this is a vast skiing area that Rauris is a part of and gives the skier chance to not only ski local in Rauris, but to also explore the surrounding areas as well. Rauris has 20 pistes with a total length of 30 kilometres (19 miles) and has a mixture of cable car, chair lift and drag lifts.
