Both cross-country skiing trails in Tauplitz have a combined length of 11.5 kilometers. The cross-country track of Tauplitz is shown as red and the Freiberg trail as a blue line in the Google Map. The Freiberg trail can be reached via a short connecting trail (green line).

The entrances to the cross-country trails are located respectively near the parking lots marked with "P". The direction of the cross-country tracks in Tauplitz is counterclockwise. Since you have the first 3 kilometers of the cross-country track in Tauplitz (Ortsloipe), and then on top of the Freiberg trail to accommodate an altitude of about 80 meters (880-960m), this part of the cross-country tour to be classified as moderate. On the remaining 8.5 km cross-country skiing is very easy and you have this very long and hard the magnificent mountain scenery, as both cross-country trails never lead through a forest. Tauplitz is surrounded by many beautiful mountains and is therefore one of the finest cross country winter sport in Austria.

The most prominent mountains are north of Tauplitz the "Sturzhahn" near Tauplitzalm. In the south, of course, the Grimming and in the east you are often seen to the Dachstein glacier. Four times the cross-country skiing  cross a road and you must take off the cross-country skis. Both cross-country trails have on the left, a skating and on the right track for a diagonal cross-country classic track. On the Freiberg cross-country skiing is a short oncoming traffic area, ohterwise the trail is groomed twice, so you do not always avoid someone.

The village Tauplitz has about 1,000 inhabitants and is located at about 900m above sea level in the district Liezen / Styria on the edge of the Styrian Salzkammergut. The beautiful holiday village in the beautiful region Ausseerland offers winter and summer tourists, many opportunities for a full recovery in an intact nature. So there it is next to the ski area at the top winter sports area Tauplitzalm with great lifts and rustic cabins in some cross-country trails in Tauplitz and on the Tauplitzalm. The night toboggan run at "Grafenwiesen" lift in Tauplitz is about 600m long and is illuminated with 17 special lights. Every Tuesday and Saturday evening the lift is open. After the sledding you can heat up in the ski lodge at Grafenwiesen again. Other leisure activities in winter sports region Tauplitz: sleigh rides, ice skating, curling, skiing and winter hiking.

In summer, the lake plateau of Tauplitzalm (Webcams), with its beautiful karst landscapes and interesting vegetation is a very popular hiking area. That over the Tauplitzalm road from Bad Mitterndorf, or with the chairlift is very easy to reach. By the lakes Großsee and Tauplitzsee you can fishing with daily license. I especially like the shimmering emerald Steirersee lake in the eastern part of the Tauplitzalm.

A bike ride on the Tauplitzalm (1656m) and the mountain bike tour of Bad Mitterndorf to Grundlsee are just two examples of the many beautiful cycling and mountain bike tours which can be done in the summer in the region Ausseerland or Salzkammergut. Only a few miles from the center in Tauplitz removed is located the "Kulm" the world largest natural-ski jump.
