Whether you’re hunting for the best Beatles photo spots or snapping epic mountain selfies, this resort is full of locations that deserve a place on your Instagram feed. Here’s our ultimate guide to Obertauern’s most Instagrammable winter places.
Follow the Beatles – A Winter Pilgrimage for Music Lovers
It’s hard to imagine, but the Fab Four once raced down these very slopes – with local ski instructors as their stunt doubles! Today, you can still trace their snowy footsteps at three unique photo spots:
The Beatles Statue
In front of Hotel Edelweiss, right in the valley, stands a life-sized monument of the band. A must-have shot for every Beatles fan.
The Piano on the Mountain
At the Grünwaldkopf mountain station, on the left side when you exit the lift, you’ll find a piano installation – a whimsical nod to Help! that looks amazing against the white snow and blue sky.
The Beatles Monument at the Kirchbühellift
This is the coolest one for photos. The snow, the backdrop, the playful design – it’s pure Obertauern magic.
The Panoramic Swing – Feel on Top of the World
At the Schaidbergbahn mountain station, you’ll find a giant wooden panoramic swing that feels straight out of a dream. Swing high above the slopes, with endless snowfields and peaks behind you – it’s pure alpine joy and an unbeatable shot for your feed.
I ♥ Obertauern Photo Frame – Capture the Love
Just follow the blue 2b slope from the Schaidbergbahn station, and you’ll spot the big #loveobertauern frame on the right side.
Here’s the best part: you can trigger a photo automatically with your ski pass, then download it later via the Skiline App.
Perfect for: Group shots, family pictures or a fun memory with friends.
The Wooden Heart – A Hidden Gem
Take the Seekarspitzbahn or Panoramabahn, follow slope 5b, and watch for the beautiful wooden heart on the right-hand side in a sharp curve. You can already see it from the lift!
Like the frame, this spot also offers an automatic photo option with your ski pass – and the mountain view behind the heart is breathtaking.
Your Alpine Story Awaits
From legendary Beatles memories to panoramic mountain swings, Obertauern combines culture, fun and pure alpine beauty. Whether you’re a skier, photographer or music lover, every corner here tells a story – and every photo captures a little piece of magic.
So grab your ski pass, pack your camera and get ready to fill your feed with snowy perfection.
