From typical Austrian fare to international specialities, from a relaxed sun terrace to après-ski at an umbrella bar, simply choose your preferred option depending on cuisine and altitude. On the Maiskogel, there are rustic ski huts and traditional mountain restaurants, both self-service and with table service. There is a very informal atmosphere in the huts. The large sun terraces tempt you to extend your break.
