mountain in Mariazell

Burgeralpe

The Burgeralpe is the mountain immediately above Mariazell, Austria's most important pilgrimage destination, and it gives the town a year-round outdoor dimension beyond the basilica. In summer it's a hiking plateau with views across the Styrian Alps into the Hochschwab range; in winter it operates as a family ski area.

The Burgeralpe above Mariazell is a year-round mountain destination accessible by the Burgeralpe Express cable car from Wiener Strasse 32. Summer hiking with views across the Styrian Alps; family ski terrain in winter. Check buergeralpe.at for seasonal hours. Combine with the Mariazell Basilika for a full day.
