The SCHATZBERG VILLAGE
Auffach Wildschönau
The fourth village in the Wildschönau, Auffach, is 875 m above sea level and is otherwise known as the Schatzberg village. Auffach is the portal to the Ski Juwel Alpbachtal Wildschönau!
The name Auffach originated from the timber industry. Years ago the village was a timber rafting centre. In winter the Schatzberg is a busy ski village and the centre of the Ski Juwel Alpbachtal Wildschönau resort. The new Schatzberg cable car transports skiers to the top in just a few minutes. Schönanger Alm lies 5 km beyond the village at the very end of the valley and is a beautiful unspoiled walking region of rich pastures. The mountains form the natural border to the neighbouring regions.
