Wildkogel — Attraction in Gemeinde Bramberg am Wildkogel

The review applies only to the organization of the cable car Wildkogelbahn (upper station):

We had an unpleasant experience that lead to a very dangerous situation in the queue to the Wildkogelbahn cable cars. Due to the sudden change of the weather (snow storm) most of visitors of Wildkogel arena decided to leave in the same time. In one moment, there were hundreds of people squeezing each other and trying to get to the cable cars. Some adult men with skis and snowboards pushed constantly small children from sides. Some children were crying - they were cold or just scared of the situation. There were also older people who were not feeling well. For some of these adult people, the situation was an adventure, as they were cheerfully and loudly singing the songs, but parents were doing everything to keep their children safe, and some people who were feeling sick, were almost passing out. I am not judging these selfish people who were shamelessly overtaking others, including children, I have strong reservations about the skiresort service who didnt secure the situation. No one from the Wildkogelbahn employees were managing the visitors. The reasonable solution would be letting small kids with 1 parent and elder people go first, but nobody even tryied to do anything. The situation of today cant be unique - the weather in the mountain changes quickly very often, so I would suggest the Wilkogel Arena management to check the queues and see if...

We came for the tobogganing and absolutely loved it. People from many ages and abilities were on the hill, and though occasionally was busy where skiers and tobogganers were (briefly) together, the run was challenging but not too difficult for our novice abilities.

It was easy to buy the toboggan lift tickets, and to rent equipment across the street. The two gondolas to the top are a bit slow, but we only had a two minute wait each time on Christmas Eve. Facilities were nice, clean toilets and available restaurants both at the base and...

Gutes Familien-Skigebiet mit sehr schlechtem Management!

1.) Taleinstieg in Hauptgondel in Faschingswoche eine tägliche Tortur für kleine Kinder (auf Kurszeit angewiesen!) - unzureichend und unsinnig ungleichmäßig abgesperrt. 2.) Pisten generell schlecht gewartet. 3.) Talabfahrt blau, obwohl für Anfänger zu steile Stücke drin sind (diese blockieren dadurch ungewollt) - damit meine ich das Stück VOR der schwarz markierten Piste. 4.) Mal Info über die eigene App bzgl. Sturm, mal nicht. Völlig unzuverlässig! 5.) Die windgeschützten Lifte werden bei Sturm früher gesperrt als die ungeschützten, obwohl man bei rechtzeitiger Info auch mit windgeschützteren Liften in den entsprechenden Bereich gekommen wäre. Im Häuschen sitzen sie und grinsen. 6.) Bei eisigem Sturm haben wir mit kleinen Kindern 30 Min. draussen an der Bergstation warten müssen, Kids haben teilweise geweint - keine Info oder Organisation, dass vielleicht länger offen ist und Eltern mit Kinder im Restaurant nebenan warten dürfen? 7.) Der Hammer aber war schlichtweg bei allerschönstem Sonnenschein ohne Wind und klarer Sicht alles zu sperren n a c h Sturm in der Nacht - die Ausrede war die ungeklärte Lawinengefahr; aber 30 Kinder durften in ihr Übernachtungsquartier hochfahren, die waren offensichtlich nicht gefährdet?! Spätestens ab Mittag hätte man aufmachen können! - Naja, dazu hätte man am Vormittag die Pisten präparieren müssen, was man an einem Samstag oder Sonntag sicherlich gemacht hätte. Es war aber Freitag, Geld zurück gibt's nicht. 8.) Restaurants in der Faschingswoche heillos überfüllt. 1 großes Haus (Wolkenstein) dabei...
