From rustic huts with lively atmospheres to stylish bars with DJ line-ups, Obertauern has it all. Drinks range from Jagatee (a traditional warm alcoholic beverage) to signature cocktails, and on the dance floor, you’re rarely alone for long. We’ll show you where the party’s at in Obertauern – our favourite après-ski spots for hot beats in freezing temperatures.

Kringsalm – Vibes with a View

Kringsalm is the perfect start to your après-ski marathon. Located right on the slope, it attracts crowds from early afternoon with great music, a sun-soaked terrace, and an atmosphere that wakes up even tired legs. Here, people dance in ski boots, toast to good times, and enjoy a stunning view of the surrounding mountains.

Inside is cosy and rustic, outside the party’s in full swing – ideal for anyone who wants to end the day with a big smile and a delicious drink.

Lürzer Alm – The Classic with Cult Status

Few names represent après-ski in Obertauern as much as Lürzer Alm. It’s not just an institution but almost a mandatory stop for anyone wanting to experience wild winter sports partying. Inside, the vibe bubbles over, outside, people celebrate with sunglasses on and drinks in hand like there’s no tomorrow.

Musically, everything’s on offer here  from Schlager anthems to dancefloor hits. Pro tip: Arrive early. Lürzer Alm fills up quickly and only empties when the lights go out.

Edelweissalm – High Altitude Hüttengaudi

Take the gondola up and dive straight into the fun – Edelweissalm sits at over 1,850 meters, making it not only one of the highest but also one of the liveliest huts in town. When the music cranks up in the afternoon, the sun terrace transforms into an outdoor dance floor with panoramic views.

Especially charming: the mix of rustic alpine hut cosiness and party vibes. If you’re looking for après-ski with a view, this is the place to be!

[PLACES ROOFTOP BAR] – Sundowner with Style

High above the rooftops of Obertauern, the party happens – but with style. The [PLACES ROOFTOP BAR] at [PLACES] Obertauern by Valamar is the perfect spot for those who prefer to end their ski day with a signature cocktail instead of ski water. Here, urban flair meets mountain panorama – right in the heart of the Alps.

The atmosphere is relaxed, the crowd diverse, and the music tasteful. Instead of party polka, expect lounge beats and expertly crafted drinks – ideal for a classy start to the evening or to unwind after a long day on the slopes.

Gamsmilchbar – Iconic Hotspot with Mountain Views

High up at 2,200 meters, right at the top station of the Zehnerkarbahn, you’ll find Gamsmilchbar – modern, stylish, with a breathtaking 360° mountain view. Alpine cosiness meets sleek design here: wood, large windows, and plenty of light create a unique atmosphere that perfectly blends tradition and comfort.
The star here: the legendary “Gamsmilch.” What’s inside? That’s the bartenders’ secret – but don’t worry, it tastes better than the name suggests. And after the second glass, you’ll probably be singing along loudly.
Whether soaking up the sun on the terrace or enjoying a delicious mountain stopover, a visit is a must for anyone seeking après-ski with character!

The Bar at Plattenkar – Chill & Beats

Sounds a bit mysterious: The Bar at Plattenkar. What sounds sober is actually a stylish spot with a laid-back vibe – somewhere between cool chill-out and lively après-ski. Especially popular: the large sun terrace where skiers and snowboarders meet for sundowners.

Here, there’s less shouting and more enjoying – but when the sun sets and the DJ beats start, the party really kicks off. Ideal for those looking for a change from the classic party scene and who value atmosphere.

Après-ski for Every Taste 

Whether rustic alpine hut, wild dance floor, or rooftop with signature drinks – Obertauern offers après-ski in all its facets. Between Gamsmilch and DJ sets, between Kaiserschmarrn and creative cocktail menus, no wish goes unfulfilled.

And the best part: the next day you’re right back on the slopes – with sunglasses, aspirin, and plenty of stories to tell.
