Description
Chalet Kammleitn is a beautiful, traditional Austrian chalet, nestled in a valley close to the Nassfeld slopes. We have created a haven where you will be as happy staying in as you are out on the ski slopes. Delicious food and wine in abundance, goes without saying, as do comfortable rooms, roaring log fires, and a welcoming environment.
Spectacular alpine views in an area of outstanding natural beauty
Ideally located for all winter alpine activities yet still a haven of peace and tranquillity
Prices are based on Chalet Board – breakfast and afternoon tea every day, evening meal and wine 6 times per week. Chef’s night off is Wednesday, so why not try out some of the excellent restaurants in Hermagor or Tropolach, and if your not too exhausted from the days activities, head off back to Nassfeld for Europes longest flood lit night ski piste.
The buffet breakfast is typically Austrian, with a selection of cereals, yoghurts, local cold meats and, cheese, boiled eggs and fresh rolls and bread, fruit juice and freshly brewed coffee and a selection of teas.
After an exhilarating day on the slopes, head back home to Chalet Kammleitn, sit around the roaring log fire, while we serve your complimentary tea, coffee, hot chocolate or Gluhwein, together with daily fresh homemade cake or biscuits.
In the evening, we offer a delicious 4-course meal, whilst good quality, complimentary wine is served until coffee.
Vegetarians are also catered for; please advise at time of booking. For groups with young children, early suppers can be arranged, if pre-booked.
Both non-alcoholic and alcoholic drinks are available throughout the day at reasonable prices.

Flights and Transfers
Nassfeld is very close to Italy and Slovenia, meaning that you can choose from many airports to fly in to. Our nearest airport is Klagenfurt, which is serviced by Ryanair, from Stansted airport. Transfers take just 1 hour, and can be either by private transfer or by shared taxi or coach services.
Alternatively, there are flights from the UK to Trieste (approx. 2 hours drive), Ljubljana (approx. 1.5 hours drive), Salzburg (approx. 2.5 hours drive), Venice (approx. 2.5 hours drive). We make all the arrangements for your transfers, but we do not charge you any extra for this service.
At Chalet Kammleitn, we are also able to pre-book all ski hire equipment and ski school for our guests.
Location
Chalet Kammleitn is just 3km from the gondola station, and the free, regular ski bus stop is just 200m from our door.
Nassfeld Ski Arena is located right on the Italian/Austrian borders, and has been aptly named as a little known gem of a resort, in the sunny province of Carinthia.
Due to its high altitude and comprehensive snow canon coverage, Nassfeld boasts of excellent snow coverage throughout the winter ski season. It is also the largest and most modern ski resort in Carinthia, and has been placed in the Top Ten of Austria’s best ski resorts.
The Millenium Express gondola is the longest in Europe, and takes just 17 minutes to transport you to an altitude of just over 2000 meters. The views of both the Austrian and Italian Alps are simply stunning.
You can enjoy the famous Austrian hospitality and cuisine at the many mountain restaurants and bars, and you can even ski into Italy for a very reasonable, traditional Italian pizza!
Other activities in the area, include 80 km of cross-country skiing (easy to difficult), 55 km of winter hiking trails, 5 toboggan runs, horse-drawn sleigh rides, ice skating on Lake Weissensee – Europe’s largest natural ice rink, or hire some of the alternative snow equipment, such as snowbikes, rubber tubes, airboards etc.
The Skiing
There are 110km of pistes, suitable for all levels of skiers and boarders, plus an amazing amount of off-piste for the more confident. The Carnia, is the longest run at 7.6km in length, and we have the longest floodlit piste in the Alps at 2.2km which is open every Wednesday night. Snowboarders are also well catered for, with two board parks with quarter pipes, kickers, table tops and a snow cross park, plus the natural snowboard area at Kronalp.
Beginners/Improvers
There is an excellent ski/board school for beginners and improvers for those wanting to improve their on-slope skills, with a really good team of English speaking instructors. Plus an extremely well organised and friendly children’s club
