Summer at Landhaus Alexa

In short, the mountains are your oyster here, it’s more about what do you NOT want to do. All events can be self-led or done with an organised group and all locations no further that 30 mins drive from our chalet. The mountains in the Austrian Alps are amazing and no two views are the same.

Cycling - all sorts of activities, road and off road, mountain biking and mountain challenges. The biggest is the Stone Man Challenge - for proper cyclists it's a must.
